Meet Hemmerli, the gentle 4-year-old German Shepherd with a heart of gold. While initially reserved, Hemmerli`s sweet and sensitive nature shines through once she feels comfortable in her surroundings. This loyal companion is best suited for a calm and understanding home environment, where she can thrive with patient guidance and love. Due to her shy disposition, Hemmerli would do best in a household with older children, preferably those aged 12 and above, who can respect her need for space and understanding. She has met another dog and seems shy but worried, so bring your pups in to see if they are best buds. If you`re searching for a loving and loyal canine companion to join your family, Hemmerli is eagerly waiting to steal your heart.
