My story

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

Meet Mali A Spunky Girl With a Heart Full of Zoomies! Mali is a beautiful young shepherd mix with a unique liver-colored coat and a very big personality. About a year old, this friendly, outgoing girl is full of love and even more full of energy. If youre looking for a fun, adventurous companion who will keep you on your toes, Mali might just be your perfect match. Mali is extremely people focused and eager for attention. Her enthusiasm can sometimes translate into jumping up to say hello. Shes working on her manners, but its hard to fault a dog this happy for wanting to be close to you. Shes crate trained, housebroken, knows how to sit, and makes fantastic eye contactespecially when there are treats involved. With her intelligence and food motivation, continued training should be a breeze. This girl will need a fenced yard with a minimum 6 foot fence. While she doesnt seem intent on escaping, Mali has serious prey drive and is on a one dog mission to rid the world of squirrels, birds, and anything else that dares enter her yard. Because of this, she needs a home with no cats or small dogs. Mali enjoys playing with other dogs but has a rough and tumble play style that may be too much for more reserved pups. Shed likely do best with a confident male dog who can match her energy and playfulness. Surprisingly, tennis balls only mildly interest her. Shell chase them once, maybe twice, then return to more important things (like hunting squirrels). What she really needs is a person whos active and outdoorsy, someone whos up for hiking, running, and exploring the world together. Mali is a joyful, vibrant dog whos ready for a bit of guidance, a lot of love, and a family that embraces adventure.

More about this rescue

Thank you for considering adopting a GSRA dog. We love that you are exploring rescuing a GSD. We firmly believe that the adoption of a dog is not one to be taken lightly. Because of this belief, our adoption process is what some would described as lengthy and can be emotional. If you are looking to take a dog home "tomorrow", unfortunately our organization is not for you.
