Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog (medium coat). If you're interested in adopting any SGSR dog, please read about our Adoption Process and fill out an Adoption Application. Visit our website for more information, including Frequently Asked Questions. Meet Nola! Nola is a 9-month-old German Shepherd who is ready to bring her whole heart into a new home. She's spent the last month in a loving foster home, and she's blossomed into a playful, silly, deeply loyal girl who just wants to be near her people — literally. Expect her to follow you from room to room, because in Nola's world, wherever you are is exactly where she wants to be. Nola's Personality Nola is high-energy, active, and always up for something fun. She loves going on walks, playing fetch, and chewing on toys to her heart's content. She's playful and a little silly, and once she knows you, get ready to be kissed to death — she is an affectionate, loving girl with the people she trusts. She's also protective of her home and family. She'll bark at strangers approaching the door or passing by the car, which makes her a great watchdog, but it also means she'll need continued socialization and confident, consistent handling as she grows into her adult personality. Great With - **Children** — Nola does great with kids - **Humans** — She's loyal and affectionate with her people - **Young, energetic dogs** — She loves other dogs and plays best with pups who can match her high energy Needs a Home Without - **Cats** — Nola is not a good fit for a home with cats - **Older or lower-energy dogs** — She loves all dogs, but her high energy can be a lot for more mellow or senior dogs to handle. She'd do best as an only dog or paired with a playmate closer to her own energy level Training & Daily Life Nola is crate trained and currently sleeps in her crate overnight. She's also familiar with a dog door and uses it reliably to go potty when she has access to it — she has had house accidents on occasions when that access was restricted, so a home with a dog door (or a commitment to a consistent, frequent potty schedule) will set her up for success. She's up to date on all her shots and is spayed, so she's ready to settle into her forever home. What Nola Needs Nola is looking for an active family who can match her energy and give her plenty of exercise, playtime, and mental stimulation. She'd thrive with people who can continue building on her training, give her structure, and offer the consistent companionship she craves. In return, you'll get a loyal, loving shadow who will keep you laughing and keep you moving. If you think you might be Nola's perfect match, we'd love to hear from you! Our adoption process consists of a telephone interview, a call to your veterinarian and a home visit. If you have any questions about the adoption process please contact sgsrtreasurergmail .

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.
