Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog. To adopt please fill out an adoption application. Be sure to watch her video! Summer is a beautiful 3yo female white German Shepherd Dog who was rescued as a stray in Memphis. Friendly, well socialized, never meets a stranger! Good with kids although recommended for older kids just due to her size and enthusiasm! Fine with other dogs. Not recommended for cats because she likes to chase them. Playful with moderate activity level outside and settles down quickly in the house. Good house manners. Housebroken but not crated because she doesn’t need to be. Obeys basic commands. Loves to be with her people. When she first came to us, Summer had heartworms, but she was treated without complications and cured and is now ready for adoption. Healthy and fully vetted, current on shots, spayed, weighs about 80 pounds. AWESOME young GSD will make a great companion (and jogging partner) for an active family who loves the breed. Here’s a note from her foster mom. This is Summer. She’s such a good dog! She’s dog friendly but a little too active for my 2 senior dogs who just want to sleep all day! But she is dog friendly. Last month we were harassed by 2 stray dogs during our walk but Summer never fought back or showed any aggression and we were able to just hurry away. She’s very friendly with people, even strangers. And good with kids. She’s somewhat obedience trained and knows some verbal/hand commands. Summer’s ideal Adopter should have experience with GSD's, be able to spend a lot of time at home and enjoy an active lifestyle. Summer is a wonderful young dog and anybody who loves shepherds would be very happy with her. To adopt please fill out an adoption application.

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.
