IDGSR Welcomes BINGO into the safety of the rescue!! THIS DOG IS FOSTERED IN TENNESSEE & AVAILABLE FOR TRANSPORT ************** Hiya Friends! My name is Bingo and I'm petite 6month old female German Shepherd. I am located near Greeneville TN and will be available for transport. Quick Facts: Age - 6 months old Kids - will do fine with kids Dogs - great with other large dogs Cats - NO cats Training - needs full range of obedience training 1. In my short 6-months of life, I've been passed from home to home due to no fault of my own. I haven't gotten to experience love, nurturing care, or routine until now in my foster home. 2.

I get along great with other dogs and would love to have a nice friendly pupper to play with in my next home. 4. Since I'm just a young girl, I will need the full range of obedience training. I'm talking the works: sit, stay, come, down, leash walking, place, greeting people nicely, any anything else you can teach me! 5. Now that it's getting warm, I'd love to play with you outside, go on walks in the evenings, maybe chase some waterfalls, or go swimming! I'll go anywhere & do anything as long as we are together. 6.

I get along very well with large breed female dogs and would love to have a playmate! I would also do fine as an only dog. 4. I would make an excellent active companion! Now that summertime is here, let's go swimming, take hikes in a shady forrest, or go get a pup-cup. 5. I could use an obedience refresher, just to brush up on some skills. I'm really smart and if you have tasty treats, I'll do just about anything! 6.
