My story

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

Charcoal is a 9-month-old female German Shepherd with a big heart and an even bigger personality once she feels comfortable. This sweet girl loves attention and bonding with her people, though she can be a bit shy with strangers at first and may need a little time to warm up. Once she does? Her goofy side and sassy attitude come shining through.

Charcoal is an active young dog who will thrive with someone who enjoys an active lifestyle or has a secure, fenced-in yard where she can burn off energy and have fun. She loves other dogs and enjoys playtime, and she can be a little vocal when she’s playing, which just adds to her charm.

Because she’s still learning and gaining confidence, we recommend no young children for Charcoal. She would do best in a home that understands her shepherd smarts, gives her patience, structure, and plenty of love.

If you’re looking for a sweet, playful, slightly sassy companion who will be incredibly loyal once she trusts you, Charcoal might just be your perfect match.

More about this shelter

Why adopt from LRHS? Adopting from a shelter gives owners the opportunity to meet and bond with their future pet prior to making the commitment to adopt. If you have an existing dog, our professional dog trainers and kennel techs will ensure all dogs meet and get along before sending a new dog into your home. If you run into any unforeseen behavioral or medical issues, educated LRHS staff are here to help field your questions and concerns.

LRHS ensures all dogs placed for adoption are to date on Rabies, Distemper and Bordatella vaccinations and are spayed/neutered, microchipped and administered flea/tick and heartworm treatments monthly. If a dog has a medical condition or behavioral issue, LRHS will make certain you are aware of the issue(s) before you adopt.

LRHS ensures all cats placed for adoption are to date on Rabies and Distemper vaccinations, are spayed/neutered, microchipped, test negative for Feline Leukemia and FIV, and receive their monthly flea treatments. If a cat has a medical or behavioral issue, LRHS will make certain you are aware of the issue(s) before you adopt.

Upon adoption, owners receive a certificate for a free veterinary exam by Winter Harbor or Kindness Animal Hospital and a free starter bag of food!
