Wendi - Dutch Shepherd / Mixed Dog For Adoption

View more

She enjoys socializing with the other dogs in her current foster home. Her best friend is a German Shepherd, who she was afraid of at first and talking up a storm about it, but once she realized he was no threat, he quickly became her main bestie! She is also used to small dogs and plays well with them. If a dog doesn’t feel like playing, she might persist for a while to convince them otherwise but then give up and go in search of some other adventure. We believe that even though she enjoys being with the other dogs in her foster home, that she would also be fine in a home with no other dogs where all of the fun and attention would be focused on her. She got along great with the resident cat at her previous foster home —starting off a bit timid but quickly warming up once she realized he was playful. Their interactions were always friendly and never aggressive, and Wendi showed great social awareness, knowing when playtime was over. For this reason, we believe she’d do very well with a dog-savvy cat and could likely thrive alongside a more cautious feline too, with some guidance and boundaries. She will at times bark at various sounds but doesn’t go on for long. She happily goes into her crate for mealtimes and when her fosters leave for work or outings. All toys are fun for this pup and she’s not too bad about wanting to chew other things but since she’s still young, she probably shouldn’t have free reign unsupervised. Her potty training has come a long way and she’s good to head out into the backyard, unless it’s raining too hard. Thunder doesn’t seem to bother her! She eagerly sits for treats and could learn so much more! She rides well in the car and would enjoy getting out and about more to continue her socialization skills. She is still at an impressionable age so her forever family will want to keep exposing her to new people and places! She will be game for anything! If you're looking for a pup who's full of love and fun, Wendi is the perfect match!
