Meet Annie!
Annie is a spirited almost five-year-old German Shepherd with a beautiful sable coat, weighing around 55 pounds. She's a lively blend of intelligence, loyalty, and boundless outdoor joy. Annie is bright, curious, and embodies the classic Shepherd spirit, whether she's exploring the woods, chasing butterflies, or twirling under the open sky. She's completed formal obedience training and confidently responds to commands like sit, stay, and down. Annie is crate trained and sees her crate as a cozy retreat. She thrives on connection and activity, enjoying car rides and playful afternoons with her favorite people, easily adjusting to daily routines.
Ideal Home
Annie truly shines in wide-open spaces with fresh air and room to run and explore. She would be happiest in a home with a securely fenced yard or a rural setting. Annie needs a single-pet, child-free environment with minimal visiting animals. She is not compatible with other dogs or cats.
Ongoing Health
Annie has a diagnosed Ventricular Premature Contraction (VPC), a heart condition that makes anesthesia unsafe and is why she has not been spayed. She also has a past seizure history, though she has not had any recent episodes.
Training & Support
Annie has completed formal obedience training and is crate trained. She would benefit from an experienced German Shepherd pet parent who understands her need for structure, positive reinforcement, and thoughtful guidance. While she can show interest in playing with other dogs, she can become overwhelmed quickly and may react in ways that require careful management. She would thrive with a confident caregiver who can provide consistent boundaries, recognize her signals, and support her with ongoing training and behavior guidance.
