My personality

Why I need a new home

Does not get along with other pet

My story

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

2-Year-Old Purebred German Shepherd; Rehoming

Beautiful black and tan female German Shepherd, 2 years old, purebred. She is loving, friendly, and great with kids, having been raised around children ages 2-15. She enjoys attention and being part of family life.

Due to our schedule, we are unable to give her the time, exercise, and mental stimulation she needs. She does not get along with cats (at least she thinks she can play with them and they don’t want to) and becomes bored without enough engagement, which has created strain in our home.

We are looking to rehome her ASAP to a cat-free home with someone who understands the German Shepherd breed and can provide consistent attention, structure, and activity. This decision is made out of love and a desire to do what is best for her.

She will thrive in the right home and be a loyal, affectionate companion.
