My personality

My story

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

Nettle - GSD - Female - 2.5 yrs - www.twyla.org

If you'd like to know more about this dog please visit our website at www.Twyla.org

Meet Nettle: This GORGEOUS young spayed female German Shepherd girl is a very typical GSD. She is very sweet, loves attention and affection, is eager to please. Destroys soft toys, does not understand fetch just yet. Plays well with male dogs, can get snippy with female dogs that are testy with her. Has shown little interest in cats, but has also had limited exposure in her current foster home.

Nettle has also had limited opportunity to interact with kids, as she likes (and is still learning not to) jump on people, older kids are likely a better match for her.

She is displaying minor signs of resource guarding around toys and her people, but corrects easily. Nettle is very receptive to training and calm and direct instructions, but will take advantage if she perceives her handler as softer or inconsistent, so prior dog experience with large and smart dogs is preferred.


***Please note: All dogs are fostered in private homes of volunteers, so to meet a dog please fill out an Adoption Application on our website (http://www.twyla.org/adopt/our-adoption-process) so we may setup a private meetup with the dog or coordinate for an Introduction at the next general Adoption Meet and Greet (as listed on our website: (http://www.twyla.org/upcoming-events), as not all dogs attend all Meet and Greets***
