About Kessa

Hiya Friends! My name is Kessa and I'm a beautiful 1-1.5-year-old female sable German Shepherd. I've been wandering around on my own for quite a while, starving for food. I stumbled upon some nice people who brought me to the safety of the best rescue! Since I'm still pretty new here, I'm learning all kinds of things. I'm working on house and crate training, and it's going well. Please be patient with me while I still learn. I love to play with other doggos! I hope you have a friendly pup for me to wrestle with and play zoomie tag, it's so fun! Will you paw-promise to give me a PHD in obedience work? I want to learn everything you can teach me: sit, stay, come, down, place, leash work, etc! I have big dreams of taking nice long walks, maybe checking out a waterfall, taking a swim in a creek or pool, sharing a pup-cup with my favorite human (aka YOU!). Can you make my dreams come true?

Ideal Home

Kessa will do fine with older kids (10+) and is good with large dogs, but she cannot live with cats.

Ongoing Health

Kessa is up-to-date on vaccinations, heart-worm testing, and monthly preventatives, and has been spayed.

Training & Support

Kessa needs full obedience training and is currently working on house and crate training. Please be patient with her as she learns.
