Description
Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever / German Shepherd Dog / Mixed. With her stunning hazel eyes and gentle heart, Frida is the kind of puppy who quietly steals your heart. This 3-month-old German Shepherd mix may be a little shy when meeting new people or exploring new places, but give her a little patience and kindness, and you'll discover a sweet, affectionate companion who loves nothing more than being close to her favorite people. Frida has a soft, gentle nature and is happiest curled up near you while you work or relax. She especially loves squeaky toys, chasing balls, and soaking up attention. One of her sweetest habits is reaching out with her paw to rest it on your hand while you're petting her, as if she's making sure you know she's right there with you. She also shares one hilarious puppy quirk with her brother: barking at her own reflection in the oven door! Like any young puppy, Frida is still learning. She's doing well with potty training and is getting the hang of doing her business outside, though she's still working on perfecting the routine. She currently sleeps in an x-pen with an open crate and is just beginning her puppy education. Frida gets along well with other dogs after a brief, cautious introduction and would likely enjoy having a confident canine friend to help show her the ropes. She has done well with kids, though energetic children can be a little overwhelming at first, so a family that will give her time to build confidence would be the best fit. She hasn't met cats yet. This smart, medium-sized pup has plenty of playful puppy energy and will thrive with an adopter who is committed to positive training, socialization, and helping her continue to grow into the confident dog she's meant to be. Loud noises can still make her nervous, but she's already made wonderful progress and continues to blossom every day. If you're looking for a loyal best friend with soulful eyes, a gentle spirit, and endless cuddles to give, Frida is ready to find the patient, loving family she's been waiting for.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Sheprador, a popular crossbreed resulting from the union of a German Shepherd Dog and a Labrador Retriever, embodies many desirable traits from both parent breeds. Originating from designer breed efforts to combine the intelligence of the German Shepherd with the Labrador's friendly disposition, these dogs typically boast a medium to large build with a dense, weather-resistant coat that can range in color. Physically, they often exhibit the Shepherd’s strong bone structure and the Lab’s kind eyes. Temperamentally, Shepradors are generally intelligent, loyal, and trainable, making them excellent companions for active families. They thrive on human interaction and do best in homes with a yard, as their energy levels make apartment living challenging without significant daily exercise. While generally healthy, potential health considerations include hip and elbow dysplasia, common to both parent breeds, and eye conditions. Early socialization and consistent training are key to fostering a well-adjusted Sheprador.
