Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Frida von Friedberg is a gorgeous, 11-12 month-old, smaller-sized, long-haired German Shepherd. Frida is an all-around fantastic young pup. She walks great on leash, takes treats gently and greets people and dogs with such happiness. Frida’s forever family will fall in love as soon as they see her zest for life and her beautiful, attentive eyes. She loves to go on walks, meeting everyone who walks by, and doggy pack-walks are even better. Frida is a medium energy pup, but she has an easy-going personality. She is comfortable in playgroups, greeting other dogs and people. And she has a silly side, too, as she invites others to play, returns to people to check-in, leans in to soak up attention and then returns to the pack for some fun. Frida even has a good first cat test. Frida will make a wonderful addition to her forever family.

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.
