Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog (medium coat). Nienie is a sweet and playful girl with a quiet spirit and a heart full of love for toys, especially the squeaky kind! Give her a favorite toy, and sheâll spend hours tossing, fetching, and squeaking to her heartâs content, showing off her fun-loving side. Sheâs also a total fan of scritches and will happily lean in for all the scritches you have to offer. On walks, sheâs steady and well-behaved on leash, enjoying exploring at a relaxed pace while staying close by your side. Fair warning: Nienie is team dog only. She's convinced cats are part of a conspiracy and does NOT want to find out ANY more.

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.
