Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog (long coat). Meet Ivy – 5 Years Old Ivy is a stunning, long‑haired German Shepherd who was abandoned but thankfully rescued by a caring Good Samaritan. Now safe with us, she’s ready to find her forever family. Ivy is wonderful on leash and absolutely adores people. She prefers to be the only dog in the home and is not suited for cats. She does have a prey drive, so she pays close attention to cats, squirrels, and other small animals. While she’s unfazed by dogs she passes on walks—even if they bark—she isn’t interested in mingling. This clever girl already knows a few commands—sit, down, and paw—and loves showing them off. A fenced yard where she can run and play fetch all day would make her happiest. She’s crazy about her ball and would be thrilled to have a pool, too, for extra outdoor fun and sniffing adventures. Ivy is affectionate, gentle, and housetrained. She’s so deserving of a family who will cherish her and give her the love she’s been waiting for. Located in South Florida

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.
