WIKI - GERMAN SHEPHERD DOG / TERRIER / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog / Terrier / Mixed. Wiki is a 6-month-old female Shepherd mix and a shy, gentle puppy. She is still learning that the world, and humans, can be safe and kind. At 25 lbs with a full-body wiggle butt, she’s impossible not to smile at! Wiki didn’t have much human contact early in life, so she’s nervous when meeting people and takes time to warm up. Once she feels safe, though, she’ll quietly ask for pets, lick your hand, or eventually LEAP into bed to snuggle up close! She truly blossoms with patience, consistency, and love. She is about 85% potty trained and uses the dog door well, though she may have occasional accidents when she feels nervous. Wiki is fully crate trained and does excellent in her kennel, it’s her safe space and where she goes when she needs comfort. She loves toys, follows her resident dog closely (especially on leash), and learns a lot by watching the other dogs around her. Wiki does great in a busy foster home with multiple dogs. With cats, she has met dog-savvy cats and was nervous, but overall fine. She takes a little longer to warm up to children, but has met kids ages 6-13. She has normal puppy energy and loves toys! Overall, she's a fairly calm dog otherwise. Wiki will require a fenced yard to help her have her safe space when learning her new home and people. With the right family, this sweet, snuggly girl is going to absolutely shine!
