Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog (long coat). Matrix is a 1 year old female who has lacked proper care most of her life. She has just wondering everywhere she sees people. This finally landed her in doggy jail where she spent her hold days before she could be removed. The girl is smaller at around 40-45 pounds and knee high. She is very calm and loving. She does have hip dysplasia in her back hips. She was born this way, but gets around well. Matrix is house and kennel trained. She enjoys playing with her toys and going for car rides. She knows how to play fetch, knows sit, and is learning leave it. She is great with other dogs of all sizes. She is curious about cats but doesn't make aggressive moves toward them. She was introduced to chickens in a coop and watched them for a moment before walking away.. This just keeps her from being a jumper or quick dog. She adores people and kids and enjoys having kids to be around. Her favorite spot is to cuddle up with someone or getting tummy rubs which she deserves. Vets say there isn't a lot that can be done for her hips besides give her a joint supplement which isn't expensive and love her until her hips becomes so painful she can't get around. She is up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, and spayed. If you can love this girl forever please reach out to Tiffany Collins with Friends of Macon County Missouri Animal Rescue at 660-676-6995. Please apply through the fmcma website if you are interested. This sweet girl will be your best friend!

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.
