Story
Anka is a 2-3 yo female gsd. Anka had been a stray so needs some skills. She was treated for HW and is cleared. she is a gorgeous girl who loves exercise and fetch. We have been working on her skills with men but does very well with women. Did I mention: She LOVES fetch. She knows basic commands. She is the girl who will hear (with those ears) the Amazon guy or someone parking out front you cannot see. SHe is after all a German Shepherd. She is utd on shots and healthy. SHe gets along with some dogs but mostly those after a slow intro. RIght now she is friends with her 115 pound gsd housemate. We would recommend no children because she jumps and without exervcise can be jumpy.

Duke is a 1 – 2 year old mix. He is small and our guess would be part samoyed, spitz or elkhound. He weighs aout 40 pounds. He is good on a leash and loves dogs. Duke is a fun guy who loves to play with dogs and people. He is shy when first meeting but loves pupperoni. Duke was rescued from the south whn on the euthanasia list. He was very fearful. He is out of his shell as his several pictures reveal. He hangs out right now with a bunch of large females and feels like the ladies’ man. He is crate trained. He loves being active outside. Duke can be very shy at first but once comfortable you are his best friend. If you are interested in meeting Duke, please email tristateshepherdrescue@gmail.com for and application.
