My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Millie! This 75 lbs German Shepherd mix is truly the most special girl. She is searching for a forever home to call her own.

This sweet girl was nearly euthanized because the shelters are too full, but luckily, we saved her in time. She had FHO surgery in Mid-April and is still recovering, but is anxious to find her forever family.

She is described as a very affectionate and loving girl. Her favorite thing in the world is being with her people. If it were up to her, she would never leave your side. Like many working breeds, she is extremely loyal. She is an old soul that has a calm demeanor and low energy levels for a working breed.

Millie is quite the curious pup! She loves exploring the yard, and once she is healed from her surgery, we suspect she will enjoy going for adventures with you. Millie loves to meet new people and she especially loves men. She will give you her paw when she would like more pets.

She is friendly with dogs of all sizes and enjoys running around with her furry friends. She has been around older kiddos and been totally fine with them.

As a loyal pup, Millie does have a little separation anxiety. She will whine a little if she’s left alone, but eventually will settle into her crate. She is not destructive. When you are home, she will follow you from room to room. Can you blame her? She just wants to be with the people she loves most!

Millie’s ideal forever home would be a calmer home that can provide her with lots of love. Ideally, at least one person would work from home or be able to spend time with her throughout the day. While she would enjoy some more casual adventures, we don’t think she would be the best hiking or running buddy. She would benefit from a yard or space where she can run around to get her zoomies out.
