Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog / Husky / Mixed. Hi there! I’m Stevie, a 10-month-old, 50 lb German Shepherd/Husky mix and if you think that sounds like a whole lot of fun wrapped in fluff, you’d be right! My foster family says I have a playful personality and those adorable husky-like mannerisms that make me so entertaining to watch so it's not surprising I turn heads everywhere I go. But my favorite thing is turning hearts into mush. I was rescued from Georgia, where life wasn’t always easy for pups like me, but those days are behind me now. I’m all about love, playtime, and new adventures. No matter what I’ve been through, I’ve stayed happy, gentle, and full of hope. I’m a big fan of belly rubs, hanging on the couch, and playing fetch. Bonus points if you cheer for me when I bring the ball back! I’ve got that adorable “Husky talk” thing going on, so I might share a little chatter with you, but it’s more conversation than commotion. I also ride great in the car! Here’s a little bit more about me: *House-trained — I go to the door to let you know when it’s time to head out. *Crate-trained — throw me a treat, and I’ll trot right in; no stress here! *Leash-trained — I walk nicely and get so excited (in a friendly way!) when I spot new people or pups because I'm a socialite. Even if another dog barks, I don’t fuss; I just do my “wanna play?” bow! *Kid and stranger friendly — I welcome love from everyone I meet, am well-mannered, and gentle for my young age. I’m spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines, so I’m ready to go! My adoption fee is $415. If you think a sweet, stunning, snuggly girl like me sounds like your kind of forever friend, head to EHRDOGS.ORG and fill out that adoption application and be sure to request STEVIE ATHENS!

Breed overview
Overview:
The Gerberian Shepsky is a hybrid of the German Shepherd Dog and Siberian Husky, emerging in North America as a modern companion with working-dog roots. Typically medium to large, they feature an athletic build, erect ears, and a dense double coat, often with striking blue or heterochromatic eyes. Their temperament blends loyalty, intelligence, and independence, making them affectionate yet occasionally headstrong. With very high energy, they thrive on daily exercise and structured training, suiting active families more than apartment living without ample outdoor time. Early socialization supports good manners with children and other pets. Notable health considerations include potential hip dysplasia and eye issues; regular vet care, weight management, and coat grooming help maintain well-being. Their typical lifespan ranges around 10–13 years, rewarding committed owners with a loyal, adventurous companion.
