Here's what the humans have to say about me:
✨ Meet Mercedes — The Loyal Shepherd Mix With a Heart of Gold ✨
At 4 years old and 47 pounds, Mercedes has already lived a big story — and she’s ready for her happy ending. She arrived at our shelter pregnant and gave birth to one perfect little pup, Spaghetti (yes, Spaghetti). She was an incredible mom, nurturing him until he was adopted into a loving home. Now it’s her turn.
Mercedes is spayed, heartworm negative, and up to date on all vaccines. She’s healthy, ready, and patiently waiting for someone to choose her.
Like many shepherd mixes, she can be protective at first. She wants to know you’re a safe person — but once she decides you’re part of her circle, she is all love. Loyal. Affectionate. Devoted. The kind of dog who wants to be by your side through it all.
If you’re looking for a companion who will bond deeply and make you feel like the most important human in the world, Mercedes is your girl.
📞 Call 260-868-2409 ext. 101 to meet her 🐾 Located at DeKalb Humane Society, Auburn, INAn adoption application can be filled out on the DHS website https://www.dekalbhumanesociety.org/adopt. Dog adoption fees are $200.00 for all puppies and adult dogs. Seniors are a donation of choice. Cats and kittens are a donation of choice.
