Story
Even though he's mixed breeds, Fynn's german shepherd side always comes out when you're around him. He is FIERCELY loyal and loves to follow you around the house and hang out with you no matter what you're doing. He has some high energy throughout the day, but he likes to follow the lead of the people around him. So whether you're going for a long walk or a long nap, he's all in. He loves to play around the house or in the yard and even loves playing with other dogs if he needs to stay at a boarder. Because of how loyal he is, sometimes that causes him to have some anxiety. He will want to protect you on walks and might get reactive to his environment. Happy to provide more context!

Story
Karla is a 5 year old, black German Shepherd mix. She is exceptionally smart and does amazingly well with her training. Karla will need a kind, committed, confident and active person who can channel her energy and drive and allow her to be the magnificent friend we know she is. She is a lean 50 pounds. Here is the tricky part - Karla does not like strangers, and sometimes other dogs. Karla takes a long time to warm up, and as such she cannot go home with just anyone. She is protective of her people, so she will need a home where this is respected. An experienced dog owner is a must. Shepherd experience is a plus. If you are interested in meeting this wonderful dog (she really is a sweetheart once she knows you!), please fill out an adoption application. Karla had a DNA test and she is: 46% German Shepherd Dog 32% American Pit Bull Terrier 9% Rottweiler 5% Dalmatian 4% American Staffordshire Terrier 2% White Swiss Shepherd 1% Belgian Sheepdog 1% Bohemian Shepherd Dog Karla is housetrained!
