Description:Mitsie and her siblings were rescued from a high kill shelter. Their mother had been dropped off with them at the pound and because their mama had a cold, they were all scheduled to be put down. These sweet puppies are so cute and full of love!
Mitzie is doing great and is growing into a very sweet girl .
I have seen her ocassionally urinate in the crate. She uses the paper most of the time when she cannot go outside. I am very proud of her because she is doing great at potty training.
She is very well socialized. She responds to her name when called. She gets along well with our dogs.
She is always full of energy. She runs fast and jumps. She will jump up to you to pick her up and then you get your faced cleaned.
She has an mild temperament. No problems in that area.
She walks with a leash. She will help you hold the leash.
Mitzy has always been the spitfire of the litter. When pups play and get into their squabbles she usually came out on top. She has a high pitched bark.
The ideal home would be a family who wants to shower her with love and attention. Puppies all grow out of the puppy stages and Mitzy is well on her way. She is a beautiful girl.
***According to dogbreedinfo.com, in April 1899, Capt. Max von Stephanitz registered a dog named Horan as the first Deutsche Schäferhunde, which means German Shepherd Dog in English. Known for their tremendous loyalty and courage, they are calmly confident, but not hostile. This breed needs his people and should not be left isolated for long periods of time. They only bark when it is necessary. Serious and almost human in his intelligence, they have a high learning ability. The breed is so intelligent and learns so readily that it has been used as a sheepdog, guard dog, in police work, as a guide for the blind, in search and rescue service, and in the military. The German Shepherd also excels in many other dog activities including schutzhund, tracking, obedience, agility, flyball, and ring sport. His fine nose can sniff out drugs and intruders, and can alert handlers to the presence of underground mines in time to avoid detonation, or gas leaks in a pipes buried 15 feet underground. A quick daily brushing is best unless hair in the house is not a problem. They should be bathed rarely, only once or twice a year to avoid skin oil depletion. Shepherds have a life expectancy around 13 years.
