Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog (long coat). A5756564 Meet Val , a 3-year-old German Shepherd who is a stunning, classic example of her breed, with a regal build, luxurious black-and-tan coat, and soulful light eyes that look beautifully framed in smoky eyeliner. In the shelter she appears very scared and nervous, often curled into a tight little ball on her bed when volunteers stop by. But please don’t let that deter you - German Shepherds are incredibly intelligent, loyal, and sensitive, and the overwhelming shelter environment makes it hard for Val to show her true self. With time, patience, and a safe space to decompress, she has all the potential to blossom into an amazing companion. Still young and full of promise, Val is ready to grow, learn, and build a lifelong bond with her people. Give this regal girl the chance she deserves, and watch her truly shine! -3 year old black and brown German Shepherd -72 pound female -no medical notes, so Val may need the standard round of shots and preventatives before she can be adopted, as well as a spay; just to be safe, she may need to be adopted on a health waiver - adopter to follow up with own vet for further diagnostics and potential treatment -came to the Baldwin Park Animal Care Center on 2/18/26 as a stray -super lovely example of her breed, with all a shep’s best qualities -a bit scared and shut down at the shelter, but once she’s settled into her furever home, she should be back to her best self in no time!

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.
