Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog. If you want a 5-year-old, confident, beautiful, black and tan, playful, female German Shepherd, look no further because today is your lucky day! Rosalita was initially was rescued at the age of 9 months old when her owner found her abandoned at the school where she taught. Rosie was not a good fit with the small dog in residence so she came into rescue and was adopted by a nice person with no other dogs. She lived there happily, chasing balls and butterflys, until her person passed away. Now she's back in rescue. She likes adults and children, is intelligent and food motivated. She can sit, heel, and wait for release before eating which, given her attraction to food, is a very difficult trick. She is crate trained, housetrained and walks well on a leash. She does have a dislike for the mailman and is happy that he leaves when she barks. Rosalita loves toys and will entertain herself with or without anyone around. She is always up for adventures in the car and is usually pretty good, especially if riding on the passenger side. She can sometimes get agitated by other dogs on leash, and sometimes doesn't care, the smaller ones are the worst. She will chase cats, for the fun of it. She is a Level 3 dog.

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.
