Description
Posted Breed: German Shepherd Dog (short coat). Meet Lainey! Lainey entered San Bernardino Shelter as a stray. When she wasn't reclaimed, we scooped her up to become a Frosted Face on December 5th. Lainey is about 10 years old and weighs 56 lbs. She is such a sweet, loving, and affectionate girl! Lainey knows SIT, rides nicely in the car, and loves walks! She has excellent leash manners and isn't reactive to other dogs. Lainey really enjoys snuggling and leans in for hugs. Can you resist her lovely face, and those EARS? Lainey is currently on a two-week Frosted Fling, so we can learn what she is like in a home. Her Fling Mom sent us this great update after their first week together: "If you are looking for a low-key, sweet dog who quickly adapts to a new home with new humans and dogs, and has many motherly instincts to serve and protect her humans (and her stuffies), please consider adopting lovely Lainey! * Rides excellent in the car. Started on the back floorboards, then moved to backseat. No interest in the open windows. * Meets and greets little dogs nicely. Completely non-reactive to the obnoxious dog next door and other dogs we meet on our walks. * Loves bones, stuffies, and treats. Occasionally needs to be reminded to take treats gently from your hand. * Knows how to use doggie door (by Day 3, she could go in and out on her own. (She has no interest in escaping your yard or any other shenanigans. * Sleeps on the carpet, hard floor, dog beds, and occasionally the sofa. Sleeps over night 10+ hours (in a dog bed next to your bed or the living room.) * Easy walker. Doesn't pull, but will put on the brakes when she smells something good in the neighborhood. She can walk at least 1 mile at a time (because that is all I can do,) but could definitely go further. * Can be protective of home and occupants, especially towards strangers at the front door. Best practice would be to keep her restrained from greeting new people at the door. If she knows you, she doesn't even bother to get up and greet your homecoming. * Licks her bowl clean for every meal (dry food, meat topping, and temporary Rx) Lainey is food obsessed and MUST be fed alone including treats. * Very soft and shiny coat of fur with very little to no shedding in the wintertime. She isn't a big fan of bath time but does love to be brushed with a Furminator. * Not one single accident in the house. She can hold it forever, but I force her to go out every 4-6 hours during the day. Will hold it at minimum 12+ hours overnight. * Can be trusted to be left home alone. She is not a door dasher, but will follow you to front door. Then, she will lay in front of the door patiently waiting for you to return. * Lainey has only met one youngster (approximate age 7) on our walk and graciously accepted his petting upon her head. * Lainey's ears and soulful round eyes are her most endearing quality. If you are a Star Wars fan, many people think she looks like Baby Yoda." Check back for the full report on Lainey's Fling!
