Approximate DOB 10/01/2015


Size - About 50 lbs


History- Purchased as a puppy by someone living in an apartment. However as she got bigger the landlord saw her and and threatened to evict the owner. So she was taken to a small rural shelter and surrendered. She stayed there for a while however the shelter was filling up and owner surrenders don't get long. A plea went out to rescue- we said yes we can take her and they transferred her to us. She is a very sweet, high energy girl who needs an active family.  


Temperament- Very sweet, playful, and energetic. Great guard dog, loves sitting in laps, loves her toys and chews..


Energy Level- High level energy- Would be a great hiking, biking, or running partner. She will need an active family or a treadmill and playtime to wear her out. She should also attend training classes to keep her mind busy so she doesn't become destructive due to boredom. 


Dogs/Cats- She is not good with other dogs. She might have never been around them before but no matter how many times we have tried letting her have friends it ends up not working out. She doesn't seem to mind the cats. We have cats and she sees them as she is running around the house but has never went after them or anything.. She will say hi and then just move on..


House trained- House and crate trained perfectly. 


This sweet girl would make a wonderful addition to any family wanting a beautiful dog who can keep up. We all know those people that are constantly pushing themselves to new heights- hiking, running, etc.. She needs a family like that.. or one that can make her work -- even if it is obedience and treadmill or flirt pole work.. She is just a fun loving energetic girl who would absolutely blossom with an active family.. Beautiful, smart, athletic, and loving what else can one want?? She is a wonderful girl-- keep in mind she crates well - we just give her an antler or stuffed kong to keep her busy. 


Adoption fee $200 includes spay/neuter, age appropriate vaccinations (4 for puppies), deworming, microchip, rabies vacc, collar and tags, training information, and all the support you need.
