About Vanna

Vanna is an approximately 4-year-old German Shepherd mix with a big heart, playful spirit, and a deeply loyal nature. She absolutely adores her humans and wants nothing more than to be a constant companion. Vanna is a true "Velcro dog," happiest when she's right by your side, whether you're relaxing at home, going for a walk, or on a road trip. She enjoys playing fetch, loves car rides, and has a wonderful medium energy level that suits both adventures and downtime. She's also been trusted to free roam in her foster home and has proven to be respectful and non-destructive. Vanna has lived successfully with dog-savvy cats and gets along with other dogs when she's out and about, though she prefers a home without resident dogs. When meeting new people, she can be a little reserved at first and likes to take her time warming up. Once she feels secure, her affectionate and devoted personality truly shines. She has been around young children and was appropriate, though she seemed more comfortable observing from a distance. For this reason, she may be happiest in a home with older children or dog-savvy kids who can respect her space.

Ideal Home

A home that can provide structure, consistency, and clear expectations. Vanna prefers a home without other dogs. She may be happiest in a home with older children or dog-savvy kids who can respect her space and allow her to warm up at her own pace.

Ongoing Health

Training & Support

Vanna is crate trained and continues to make progress with her leash skills and overall confidence. She can be protective of valued resources such as food, toys, and attention, so she will do best with an adopter who is committed to providing continued guidance and reinforcing good habits.
