Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Daphnie is a two year old pedigree female German Shepherd Dog. She is sweet, playful, and very well trained. Daphnie has completed several doggie training programs and will sit, stay, heel, lay down, not jump, whether she is on or off a leash. While walking her she is trained to sit down when I stop, and to stay even if I walk down the block, until she is called. She is also a certified Emotional Service Animal. Daphnie is a very gentle animal, and although she likes to play, and can be protective, she does not fight with other animals. She is cautious of people when she first meets them and keeps an eye to protect me until she has determined that they are friendly and that I like them - then she is a goofball. She has a ferocious bark that belies her size (she is fully matured at 60-65 lbs), but listens to the command to hush. She is kenneled trained (she has a thing for toilet paper). Daphnie is up to date on all of her shots, is spayed, and has had a tummy tack (prevents her stomach from rolling, very common cause of death in big dogs).
The ideal family for Daphnie would be one that is very active and likes to take her on hikes, to the dog park, and for a ride in their vehicle. They would enjoy walking her and using her trained commands daily. They would appreciate her gentle loyalty and her playful, somewhat shy spirit.
