Indigo came to the shelter as stray, and is around a 3 year old German Shepherd. She is pretty new, so she is still quite nervous, going to the other side of the kennel when you try to take her out. Once she does come out of her kennel, she can pull a little bit on leash and seems very curious of her surroundings. Once Indigo gets to know you better, she allows petting and has even started wagging her tail! Indigo tested with small and large dogs, and was uninterested but this may change over time. We know in the proper home, Indigo's personality will blossom! At this time, Indigo is recommended to a home with teens, 16 and up.
