Story

We were out of the state and when driving back there was an old man giving out puppies. I thought I could help find her a good home if we took her with us. We took two and my friend loved and stayed with the other, but is been long to find a new place for Nina. She is 8 weeks will be 9 weeks soon. She is playful and gentle too. We want a family for her that can love her and care for her. With a backyard preferably. Because of her size She will need her daily exercise to be healthy. I do not and wont let her go if I suspect that new prospect owner will use her for breeding or any abusive actions. I already had my own dog. I just wanted to foster her and make sure She had good care before She meet her new family.

Story

Where did you acquire your pet? I acquired her from a friend that had puppies. How old is your pet? She is 3 years old. Her birthday is October 1, 2022. What are you looking for in a new home? I'm looking for a loving home where someone has the time to give her the attention she deserves. She enjoys spending time both outdoors and indoors and loves being part of the family. Her new owner should be able to keep up with her regular veterinary appointments, as she has mild allergies. What adjectives would you use to describe your pet? She is loving, affectionate, playful, and friendly. She loves to cuddle, relax on the couch, and greet people with enthusiastic jumps. She is very food-motivated and loves snacks. She knows several commands, including sit, paw, right paw, left paw, and touch, especially when treats are involved.

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained,

Story

Winter is a beautiful German Shepard dog who has been with us for 4 years now. Unfortunately after years of dealing with my allergies and asthma I can’t control it no more. Now we need to keep her fully away from me to get myself better. We love her so much and it hurts us to see her go but I know she deserves more than what I can give her. We want no fee at all for her all we would want is for her to have parents who wouldn’t mind keeping us posted from time to time as my kids have grown with her and are completely devastated to see her go.
