Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog (long coat). All of our dogs are housed in private homes, we do not have a store or a shelter. We do not show dogs to interested parties until they have an approved adoption application. If you are interested in adopting one of our dogs, please fill out an adoption application on our website .helpingshepherdsofeverycolor/adoption-application You may also find us on facebook: Helping Shepherds of Every Color Rescue. I bet you are looking at this beautiful dog and wondering how she ended up in a rescue. It happens all the time. She was brought to the shelter as a stray and no one seemed to notice she wasn't at home to greet them or to eat. We don't know why. All we can do now is to try and find her another home who won't forget about her. Greta is a lively young black German Shepherd. She is all velocity and no direction. Estimated 6-8 months old, I don't think she has ever been worked with or taught manners. She is not good with cats. Greta is learning manners and she is good with other dogs. She soaks up attention from people but may still be too excitable for small kids.

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.
