REBA - GERMAN SHEPHERD DOG DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog. DESCRIPTION: Reba, along with her sisters Lainey and Shaina, came from an accidental litter; one that we have affectionately named the Country Puppies. Born without the resources or care they needed, the girls spent their early days living outside without consistent attention or guidance. Recognizing that the puppies deserved a safer, healthier start, their owner made the responsible decision to surrender them to MAGSR. This gave each girl the chance to grow into a confident, stable adult with the support of a loving family. Reba is a brave little sweetheart with a big heart and an even bigger desire for love. Despite her tough beginnings, she’s discovering just how wonderful the world can be—one cuddle, treat, and wagging tail at a time. Curious, affectionate, and eager to bond, she’s soaking up all the positive experiences she missed early on. Reba does have some natural alpha tendencies and can be opinionated. She has even attempted to herd the other two GSDs in her foster home. However, with time, patience, and consistent guidance, she is learning manners and basic commands. She’s dog-friendly and people-friendly, though cats may not be the best match for this lovely girl. As adorable as she is, Reba is still very much a puppy. She will whine, have accidents, and keep you on your toes with endless puppy antics. But with training, routine, and plenty of opportunities to learn, Reba will grow into an amazing adult dog. Her foster family has been working hard to build a strong foundation of skills, and she’s ready to continue her journey with a family that can provide the structure, routine, and encouragement she needs to thrive. In return, Reba will bring joy, devotion, and that special rescue-dog gratitude that fills a home with love. Reba is ready for her forever family—could it be you? Update: Reba is settling in nicely. We are still working on housebreaking—she is currently most comfortable using pee pads in her crate. She has gone outside twice while we were playing in a field. Reba is dog-friendly and loves balls and hard chew toys like Nylabones. She is a rough player and can be a bit bossy. She does well in a crate as long as she can see people. She is not a big barker unless she sees another dog she cannot meet, and she settles down with correction. We are working on crate training (being alone), basic obedience commands, and housebreaking. She has completed her treatment for her skin concerns. The hair on her ears and around her eyes is slowly growing back. She is still itchy, but it has improved. We are now starting Doxycycline for Lyme disease.
