Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog (long coat). Female - 4 months - 19 lbs - Microchipped - Spay Contract - PA Hello! My name is Henrika and I am a 4-month-old, 19 lb female. My adoption is conditional on my adopter having me spayed at 6 months of age (September 2025). I am doing well with housetraining and am already crate-trained. I am still a puppy so I will need to be crated when I am left home alone. I can be shy initially then warm up quickly to men, women, and older children. I love to be held and snuggled, and being nearby to my family is my favorite! I will alert you to visitors at our home with a few barks then settle in and greet them. I do well with other dogs and could benefit from a confident canine companion or I could also do well by myself. I love to play with my foster siblings! I also love to play with toys and am nondiscriminatory about which toys to play with! I cannot go to a home with cats. I am doing well with leash training and enjoy going for car rides, making me a great adventure partner! I have been working hard to learn some basic cues such as sit, come, and drop it. My foster mom says I’m the smartest of my siblings (don’t tell them!) and would thrive with continued training! Could you be the family I am searching for? Follow me on Facebook: #EchoDogHenrika For more information, please contact adoptionsechodogs. Echo Dogs fosters dogs in many states. Visit .echodogs/available-dogs to see more of our dogs. Transportation for the adopted dog IS available. Remember, we are an all-volunteer foster rescue organization - we DO NOT have a physical shelter to visit. Our minimum adoption donation is $350. All dogs are spayed/neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations and micro-chipped. Puppies under 6 months old may not be spayed/neutered. This would be the responsibility of the adopter at their own expense. Proof of spay/neuter will be required!

Overview:
The German Shepherd Dog, a truly iconic breed, originated in Germany in the late 19th century, primarily for herding sheep. They are easily recognizable by their athletic, medium-to-large build, typically weighing between 50-90 pounds, with a distinct double coat that can be black and tan, sable, or solid black. Known for their intelligence and loyalty, German Shepherds possess a remarkably trainable and courageous temperament, making them exceptional working dogs in fields like police and service work. While generally good with families when properly socialized, their high energy levels and need for mental stimulation make them unsuitable for apartment living without significant daily exercise. Prospective owners should be aware of common health concerns such as hip and elbow dysplasia, as well as degenerative myelopathy, underscoring the importance of responsible breeding and regular veterinary care.
