Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog (medium coat). All of our dogs are housed in private homes, we do not have a store or a shelter. We do not show dogs to interested parties until they have an approved adoption application. If you are interested in adopting one of our dogs, please fill out an adoption application on our website .helpingshepherdsofeverycolor/adoption-application You may also find us on facebook: Helping Shepherds of Every Color Rescue. Pepper is a 6-year-old German Shepherd. She is sweet and smart, and is quick to learn. She's been trained in basic commands, socialization, and leash training. She would do best as an only dog but may tolerate other calm dogs. She does have anxiety, and is nervous meeting new people, but once she loves you, she'll follow you everywhere. Children are scary for her, and she would do better in a home without small children. She's spayed and is heartworm negative, and is up to date on all vaccinations. Pepper came back to us because her owner is very ill and no longer able to take care of her. She is a sweet dog, she just prefers a quiet life.

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.
