About Lentil Lou The Loving Little Shepherd

Lentil Lou is an approximately 1-year-old, 48 lb German Shepherd mix with a heart full of love and a spirit of pure joy! She's a social butterfly who greets everyone, two-legged or four-legged, with boundless enthusiasm. Lentil Lou adores other dogs and is always up for a playful romp, but she also cherishes downtime and cuddling up with her favorite people. She's a smart and eager-to-please girl who already knows how to sit and is motivated by treats, making training a fun and rewarding experience. Lentil Lou is also house-trained and crate-trained. She walks fairly nicely on a leash, occasionally pulling out of excitement, but is responsive to gentle reminders.

Ideal Home

Lentil Lou would thrive in a semi-active home with a family that enjoys neighborhood walks and is looking for an affectionate companion. She would be happiest in a home with children 12 and older. A backyard for her to stretch her legs and soak up the sun would be ideal.

Ongoing Health

No specific ongoing health concerns were mentioned in the listing.

Training & Support

Lentil Lou is treat-motivated and eager to please, already knowing "sit." She walks fairly nicely on a leash but may pull occasionally due to excitement. Gentle reminders help her regain focus. She is crate-trained and potty-trained. Patience and consistency will make training a rewarding bonding experience.
