Angel #8

Updated on Wednesday, 07/16/2008

Adopted!

Angel is a very sweet and loving white-and-cream-coated female estimated to be 2 years old. She is on the small side, stature-wise for a GSD and needs to put on some weight to cover up her ribs and back; just 50 lbs now. Otherwise, she is healthy, parasite free, and spayed (2/22/08). We have her on puppy food now and she is frisky and happy. She loves to have back scratches and belly rubs. She is a real people lover and is somewhat submissive without being timid. She is mouthy but does not bite or nip. She enjoys a game of tug, no matter who is on the other end. She holds her own with my two boys, Elwood and Jake, she does tell them when to step back, but is not aggressive. She is a flirt. After just a couple days here, they all play nicely together. She is interested in cats and will chase, if chase is started. She showed good rapport with Greta, a 6-year-old, female VGSR dog down the street and plays at the fence with the female Chihuahuas next door. She is crate-trained and okay on the leash, is alert and curious, but not a puller. When not distracted, she will sit and down and stay with some encouragement. When distracted, treats are helpful. She responds well to training and is eager to learn. She comes to her name and knows "No". She has some interesting traits including her run and her yodel bark which shows there may be some Whippet or similar sight hound in her background. VGSR Tag #2129
