Story
[DogName] is a COURTESY LISTING available for private adoption -- for more information, please contact the owner listed below. DO NOT apply through the GSRA website as this dog and owner are not affiliated with GSRA. Female German Shepherd, likely 1-2 years old, was abandoned and we have been taking care of her. We have had her checked by the vet and she is now up to date on shots and worming. She is eager to please, but has not had much training. We are working with her to on recall. Shes young with a lot of energy but does well on a leash. She does have a high prey drive. She is a beautiful dog with lots of potential but she will need someone who can dedicate time to train her and a fenced area to keep her safe. She has been started with crate training and she has done well with our other dogs (Miniature Poodle and Labrador). She responds well to our daughter that rescued her and our 8 year old son. She definitely has a guard dog quality and barks at strangers who enter our property. She would make a loyal companion and lifelong friend! Please contact us to meet Hazel or ask any questions.

Story
Greetings world My name is Luna. I am a happy and energetic young girl of about seven months old. I am looking for a family of my very own. Let me tell you a little bit about myself and see if you think we might be a match.I am a petite girl. My foster mom thinks that I am a mix. Most likely I am a German Shepherd/border collie mix. I have a beautiful gray face with fluffy ears I have wavy blonde and brown fur on my body. I am currently 37 pounds and will probably be about 50 pounds when I finish maturing. So a perfect size for someone wanting a more compact companion! My foster mom says that I am super super smart! I think that's a compliment! I am a very intense dog and I bond very quickly with my person. I am very fast very athletic and very focused. Foster mom says I need a job! When we are out in the yard I will run around and then I will run up and either do a leap by my foster mom or I will come to a sliding stop and just look at her for direction.I am extremely food motivated and will sell my soul or do any trick you want to try to teach me for some treats. I take treats gently which is a good thing. I love to play ball and I love to just engage with my foster mom. I will sit on command and stare intently waiting for further direction. I also know how to give the paw! I sometimes utilize this skill to try to encourage my foster mom to give me an extra treat from her a little snack bag that she carries around.I have several furry foster siblings that I get to interact with and play with. I love a good game of chase (I am super fast and I can dodge and weave with the best and I can also utilize my leapfrog skills. If someone trips in front of me I just go vertical and hurdle right over them). I'm also up for the little rough and tumble play as a few of my housemates like to play tag/tackle as well. It's all good. I am perfectly happy with that. I'm actually a fairly submissive player.I do have consider a prey drive so I will need a home with a dog at least my size or bigger. No small dogs. No felines. (Foster mom is unsure on fish; they move around quickly. They might also get my attention. ). I also need a home without chickens. There are currently chickens at my foster home and I am trying my best to parkour off the fence to see if I can get it to give. I would love a home with an individual or a couple that would like to work with me on agility or some other sport where I could demonstrate my superior skill sets. I am so eager to learn and I am so athletic. What do you expect when you have a working line dog/herding dog combination? I would also love someone who just wants to run! I have tons of energy and I would love to be a jogging partner!My foster mom says that I need to go to a home without children under the age of 15. I am a super excited dog and I get a little nippy. It's just an energy outlet but my foster mom says that it's not a good combination to have around young children. Well I've tried to describe a lot of my personality traits and hopefully I have peaked your interest if you're looking for a fun loving devoted friend. Please come and meet me soon. Best wishes Luna When I get videos you will find them HERE! Please visit our website www.gsdrescue.org to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs.

DO NOT apply through the GSRA website as this dog and owner are not affiliated with GSRA. I have the sweetest AKC German Shepherd. Luna needs a loving home! Im looking for someone with GSD experience. She is reactive to other dogs, meaning she barks at them when she sees them. However she is eager to learn and gets along with other dogs (mostly males) with the proper introduction. Im not home a lot with my work schedule and she needs more attention than I can give her.
