TEMPERAMENT

JENNY
is just a little over 1 year old, and very much so still has the energy of a puppy! She is a gorgeous and very tall GSD weighing about 65 lbs. Jenny loves to please her humans and receive all the love they have to offer. 

Jenny does absolutely great in her kennel during the work day and at night for sleep. She is potty trained. We’ve been working on house manners regarding “off” and still learning the influx and meaning of “no.” Her mouthing and jumping has decreased tremendously since entering our foster home, but continues to need more training and patience. Jenny knows “sit” and “down.” She gets so excited doing these commands for treats that she can barely keep her booty/tail steady on the ground. She does great on walks around the neighborhood while wearing her gentleleader.

Jenny loves snuggles with her humans and can’t wait to finally join a family that will provide her with unconditional love. She hopes to find a family that will take the time to provide her with productive ways to burn her energy and proper training to continue working on her manners.



OTHER ANIMALS

Jenny is currently housed with her two foster moms, a cat, elderly corgi dog, and 4 year old GSD. She loves to play and have “wrestle mania” sessions outside with the other GSD. She’s gotten along well with other visitor dogs as well after proper introduction and loves playing with the cat (only requiring cues at times to be gentle).

PEOPLE


Jenny seems to be pretty hesitant of most males (human). She tends to bark at them and feels uneasy when being approached by them. We feel like she would warm up overtime, with patience, and love from any male figure, she just needs time to earn that trust back.



MEDICAL

Jenny has been spayed, is up-to-date on all vaccines, has an active rabies tag, and is micro-chipped. She has no known medical issues.

If you're looking for a gorgeous, young, trainable German Shepherd
who will love you forever,
Jenny may be your ideal family member!

JENNY'S ADOPTION FEE:   $350
This fee covers only part of what we spend to vet, board and rehab the dogs we save.  On average we spend over $450 on each dog.  We made a decision to keep our adoption fee at the 2005 level even though vet prices have doubled and tripled since then.  We are constantly fundraising to cover the deficit.  At minimum, your adoption fee includes the dog's spay/neuter, heartworm test, heartworm treatment if needed, rabies shot, distemper/parvo shot, bordatella shot, deworming, monthly heartworm and flea preventives, and microchip.  In many cases it also includes surgery and various types of vet treatment for standard issues such as hot spots, ear infections and so on.

STOP!! READ THIS BEFORE YOU GO ANY FURTHER!

  1. We're picky about our adopters. 
  2. Are you sure you're up to having a GSD?  They're not for everyone.  They take a lot of time, effort, training.  They shed year round.  They're big.  They scare lots of people.  They "mouth" and herd.  They're usually strong-willed and stubborn.  You have to have references and a home visit.  If you're not willing or able to deal with any of this, please don't waste your time or ours applying.  
  3. Will the dog be an inside family pet? We do not adopt to outdoor-only homes. All dogs must be indoor dogs.
  4. Do you leave your dog outdoors when you're not home?   We do not adopt to homes that leave their animals outside when they're gone.  You must put your dogs indoors when you're gone.  A 3 yr old adopted MOGS dog died when the owners went to run errands, left her outdoors, the gate was somehow opened, and she was hit by a car.  Tragic and 100% preventable. Even privacy fences get broken into.  Gates are opened.  Thieves steal dogs. Never leave your dog outdoors when you're not home!!
  5. What's your plan for unexpected events and major changes?  New baby? Divorce?  Moving?   How you will provide for your dog if your family breaks up? 
  6. Will you make a lifetime commitment?  It's your responsibility to keep your dog safe, loved and cared for FOR LIFE.
  7.  Do you understand we expect you to keep that lifetime commitment?  It's YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to stick by your family member -- no matter what.
  8. Are you unable or unwilling to make a lifetime commitment? Do not apply.
