Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Nosey Is Full of Life and Ready for Fun in the Sun
1 year old, female, small, black-and-tan German Shepherd
Good with other dogs: Yes
Good with children: Unknown
Good with cats: Unknown
Nosey is such a little cutie pie! This young, energetic girl came to us very thin and looking a bit sad. But she is such a sweetheart that we HAD to save her! Nosey is a real people pleaser, which is adorable to watch. She has been working with expert trainer Ryan Maciej over at The Barking Dog in Scottsdale and he reports that she is a wonderful student.
When Nosey first came to us, we quickly learned that she was very reactive to other dogs. But in stepped Ryan to work with her, and we are SO proud of our girl and all the progress she’s made. She’s been hanging out in play groups with tons of other dogs and has learned wonderful doggie manners. In addition, Ryan has worked with her on obedience, and she’s now a well-behaved doggie. She does still react through fences, but once she gets up close to the other dogs, she just wants to play!
This girl is high energy and needs an active family that could provide plenty of physical and mental exercise, as well as continual positive obedience training. Now that’s she’s got the basics down, we think she’d do great learning agility or other dog sports. We would recommend older children since she’s rambunctious and active and may knock down little ones.
If you can give Nosey an indoor home, you must fill out our online application to get the approval process started. We will only schedule meet and greets with an approved application. All staff members are volunteers and are not compensated for their time and expenses. Many juggle family and full-time careers while volunteering at Saving Paws. Please be patient, as sometimes it takes up to 5 days to process an application.
