My story

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

Bright Spirit With a Standout Look

Vashti is a striking white German Shepherd–Husky mix, about a year old and around 50 pounds, with a truly eye-catching appearance. She is new to our care after coming to us when another shelter did not have space. While we are still getting to know her, the previous shelter shared helpful insights into her personality and habits.

According to the previous shelter, Vashti is house trained and walks nicely on a loose leash. She has a playful, puppy-like personality paired with a sweet, affectionate nature. She loves treats, enjoys cuddle time, and likes being close to her people. Vashti knows basic commands like sit and come and is eager to engage and learn.

Vashti offers a lovely mix of playful moments and calm companionship. As she settles in, both her personality and her beautiful, distinctive look are sure to shine even more.
