Serena is a gorgeous, loyal, and affectionate 5 year-old German Shepherd. While she experiences stranger danger (and is still uncomfortable with crowds), she delights in human contact within her trust circle. This lady needs her cuddles and will become your faithful friend in no time.
She has a play-until-you-drop relationship with other dogs, so if you already have a large dog at home, she might be a good fit. She acknowledges cats as they calmly walk by without chasing them, showing more interest in her person or her toys.
Serena is trained in the basics, including sit, wait, stay, come, bring, drop, catch/fetch (her favorite), and back (move backward). We are improving her recall in new environments and also polishing her leash-walking skills. She is housebroken and crate-trained.
She exhibits all the standard GSD traits, including high intelligence, courage, strength, and observance.
She is looking for a faithful person to spend time with, a space to call her own with a secure 5-foot fence (minimum), mental stimulation (walks, interactive activities), and lots of affection. We also recommend continuing positive reinforcement training, as it develops a strong human/canine bond.
Age: 5 years Other dogs: Serena is a powerful and energized player who would require a friend (s) similar in size and play style. Cats: Yes Kids: 15+ Weight: 62 pounds Leash Behavior: Walks fairly well on leash
If you are interested in adopting Serena, please fill out our online application. Once your application has been reviewed and approved, we will work with you to schedule an appointment. Please do not drop in to view dogs without an appointment. All High Sierra Animal Rescue dogs are spayed or neutered, up-to-date on age-appropriate shots, micro-chipped, tested for heartworm, given heartworm preventative medication each month, and de-wormed.
