Story
This animal is available at the Napa County Shelter Phone: 707-253-4382 PLEASE DO NOT CONTACT NORTH BAY Luna ID 44065   Breed: German Shepherd   Sex: Female   Age: 3 years, 5 months, 1 week   Weight: 47 lbs   Date In: 2/3/2024   Have you ever met a German Shepherd as charming and loyal as Luna? This three-year-old furry ball of happiness will steal your heart with her stunning smile and cheerful personality. She's the perfect addition to any family looking for a new furry friend! Luna loves to go for walks, and she's always eager to learn new commands and tricks. She's also a big fan of playing with most dogs and making new friends. However, we must warn you that Luna has a bit of an obsession with playing, especially with smaller breeds. In her previous home, she had a little brother whom she loved to play with, but he couldn't catch a break because she was always up for a game! So, if you have a small breed or are considering adopting one, be mindful of Luna's playful nature. ¿Has conocido alguna vez a un pastor alemán tan encantador y leal como Luna? Esta bola peluda de felicidad de tres años te robará el corazón con su impresionante sonrisa y su alegre personalidad. ¡Es el complemento perfecto para cualquier familia que busque un nuevo amigo peludo! A Luna le encanta salir a caminar y siempre está ansiosa por aprender nuevos comandos y trucos. También le encanta jugar con la mayoría de los perros y hacer nuevos amigos. Sin embargo, debemos advertirte que Luna tiene un poco de obsesión por jugar, especialmente con las razas más pequeñas. En su casa anterior, tenía un hermano pequeño con quien le encantaba jugar, ¡pero él no podía tomar un descanso porque ella siempre estaba dispuesta a jugar! Entonces, si tienes una raza pequeña o estás considerando adoptar una, ten en cuenta la naturaleza juguetona de Luna.  The Napa County Shelter Erika Gamez Shelter Manager  942 Hartle Court  Napa, CA  94558  Main Phone: 707-253-4382  Main Fax: 707-253-6191  Kelly Tracey, Shelter Supervisor  ktracey@co.napa.ca.usMay 1, 2024, 2:02 am

This animal is available at the Napa County Shelter Phone: 707-253-4382 PLEASE DO NOT CONTACT NORTH BAY Miley ID 45237   Breed: German Shepherd   Sex: Female   Age: 1 year, 3 weeks   Weight: 57 lbs   Date In: 2/26/2024   Miley Meet the sweetest girl ever! She loves to play and craves attention. Being a young pup, she has an endless supply of energy. That means training will be fun for both Miley and you! While she's friendly, she needs some help with desensitization and socialization to feel comfortable around new people and places. As for potty training, she's still learning the ropes and will catch on quickly with a good routine in a home environment. She would do well with a family with children, but it's essential to keep an eye on her when she's around young kids, as she can get overly excited and accidentally knock them over.    Miley ¡Conoce a la chica más dulce de todos los tiempos! Le encanta jugar y anhela atención. Al ser un cachorro joven, tiene un suministro interminable de energía. ¡Eso significa que entrenar será divertido tanto para Miley como para ti! Si bien es amigable, necesita ayuda con la desensibilización y la socialización para sentirse cómoda con personas y lugares nuevos. En cuanto al entrenamiento para ir al baño, todavía está aprendiendo los conceptos básicos y se pondrá al día rápidamente con una buena rutina en un ambiente hogareño. Le iría bien en una familia con niños, pero es esencial vigilarla cuando está cerca de niños pequeños, ya que puede emocionarse demasiado y derribarlos accidentalmente.  The Napa County Shelter Erika Gamez Shelter Manager  942 Hartle Court  Napa, CA  94558  Main Phone: 707-253-4382  Main Fax: 707-253-6191  Kelly Tracey, Shelter Supervisor  ktracey@co.napa.ca.usMay 1, 2024, 2:02 am

Hey, I'm Bruno, a 2 to 3-year-old German Shepherd looking for a fresh start. Found as a stray with just a tag bearing my name, I'm a smart guy-I know sit, down, shake, speak, and I'm as gentle as they come. While I'm open to anyone, I think I'd thrive best with adults or older kids. I get along great with dogs, but cats are still a mystery. Life hasn't always been easy, but I'm ready for a loving home. Will you be the one to give this big-hearted pup a forever family?April 30, 2024, 3:21 pm
