Meet the delightful Gerdie, an older girl with a heart full of spunk and joy! 🎉 This lovely lady absolutely adores playtime and is still mastering the art of fetch—though she's mostly in it for the squeaky toys and balls! 🐾 Imagine her charming smile as she chases after a toy, eager for the game to continue. And if you have any new toy ideas, she's more than open to being surprised! Now, let’s talk about her personality. Gerdie is a laid-back lady who knows how to enjoy her own company. While she met another dog casually, she’s more of a solo artist when it comes to playtime. She would thrive best in a home with another mellow dog who understands the importance of giving her space when she needs it. It’s all about the vibe, you know? 🐕‍🦺💖 Gerdie is a big girl with a big heart, and she does have a little excitement when leash time comes around! Because of her size, a confident and capable handler would be ideal for her—not to mention someone who can use positive reinforcement or is open to learning it. Imagine taking lovely walks together around the neighborhood, where Gerdie can soak up the sun and enjoy the sights! 🌳 Speaking of family, Gerdie is quite tolerant and has shown she can handle gentle interactions without resource guarding. However, due to her age, she would appreciate a home with older kids (10+), especially ones that know when to give a sweet lady her space. Oh, this gal loves her long naps on the couch, but don’t underestimate her desire for some exercise! Gerdie is a fantastic walking companion and thrives on mental enrichment too. A little time spent playing and exploring is sure to warm her heart! 🐕💖 Gerdie may be in good health overall, but she could shed a few pounds to feel even better. A loving forever home should ensure regular vet visits so she can gracefully enjoy her golden years. And while she already knows a few tricks, brushing up on her basic cues will only deepen that bond between her and her new best friend! Oh, and regular brushing will help keep her shedding to a minimum—it's a win-win! ✨ Now doesn't this sweet lady sound like a perfect fit? If you feel the same spark, it’s time to *apply through the Buddy App* and make Gerdie a part of your family!
