Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog (medium coat). Meet Koda - A Diamond in the Rough This gorgeous 6-month-old German Shepherd girl is ready to find her perfect match! Koda is a strong, confident pup with a big personality, and she needs an equally strong leader to help her reach her full potential. The Real Talk: Koda came to us without the early structure and boundaries that puppies need, and she's showing us exactly what that looks like. She's a smart, spirited girl who will test every limit you set—not because she's bad, but because no one taught her the rules early on. She needs someone who won't take it personally when she says "no" back, and who has the experience and consistency to show her that structure actually feels good. What Koda Needs: ✅ German Shepherd experience is a MUST - This breed is incredible, but they're not for beginners, especially one starting behind the curve ✅ No female dogs - Koda needs to be the only girl in the home ✅ Older kids only - She doesn't have respect for younger children yet ✅ Unknown with cats - Proceed with caution ✅ Commitment to training - She's young enough to turn around with the right guidance The Potential: With an experienced handler who understands the German Shepherd drive and intelligence, Koda has incredible potential. She's only 6 months old—her story is just beginning, and the right person can help write an amazing next chapter. Are you Koda's person? If you have GSD experience, firm but fair boundaries, and the dedication to help a young dog learn the structure she missed, Koda is waiting for you.

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.
