Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Mallory von Mittweida is a beautiful, 6-year-old German Shepherd. Sweet Mallory enjoys spending her days being next to you and getting head scratches and pets. Likely housebroken, she's happy to go on walks, knows her "sit" and takes her treats from your hand gently. While at times she can bark at certain other dogs as she's out and about, she has done well meeting dos up close on walks and in playgroups. She enjoys exploring and sniffing about. Mallory is looking for her forever home, whether in California or as an adventure in a new state!

Based on our experience, Westside's current thinking is to usually match first-time shepherd owners with a mix versus a purebred shepherd. Mixes are "softer" and somewhat more malleable. Exceptions can be made, however, for first-time adopters who show the confidence and leadership tendencies that purebreds will respect and respond to. Counselors have to use good judgment in assessing the attributes of the adopter, as well as of the dog. If you have doubts, get a second opinion from Robin or another experienced counselor.
