Karissa von Kelbra's Story...
Karissa von Kelbra is a beautiful 2 year old German Shepherd on the smaller side who makes for a great passenger in the car, unlike all those back seat drivers we hear about. She rides politely, patiently hoping you might stop at a drive-thru burger place and share a Big Mac with her. People are Karissa's favorite living things, especially the ones who give her belly rubs which make her feel like she is in doggie heaven. Although she relishes playing with all her toys, she has a special liking for tug-of-war, sure to build up your arm muscles. A well-rounded girl, Karissa gets along with children, dogs and had a good first cat test. And if all this were not enough, she is also housetrained.

Why Adoption is a Great Option

Karissa von Kelbra, a Los Angeles German Shepherd Dog dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a German Shepherd Dog for sale in Los Angeles, or seeking a German Shepherd Dog dog from a breeder in Los Angeles.

  1. Rescues and shelter volunteers in Los Angeles already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
  2. On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Los Angeles breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
  3. You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even German Shepherd Dog breeders who help with German Shepherd Dog rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Los Angeles paves the way for another one to be saved.
