My name is Medusa!

Medusa is a 4 year old german shepherd (turning 5 in October). We took in Medusa when she was about 4 months old from a family friend. We were told she was a pure german shepherd although she didn’t grow to be as large as one. We suspect she may be mixed or perhaps a runt but from the way she looks you can’t even tell. Medusa is very protective and loving but can be very energetic and jumpy. She loves to be around people but tends to get too excited and has a jumping problem. She has been good around our children who are mostly older. She does have a problem with “fighting” our larger male dog but we presume it may just be for dominance reasons. As mentioned, she loves attention and in the past has even faked an injury so she can be near us. Medusas worst quality is her hatred for the vet. She has thrown huge fits and taken off muzzles. Recently with a new family member it’s been especially hard to care for her properly and we think it’s best she finds someone with more time for her.
