About Diana

Diana is a 5-year-old German Shepherd with a heart as gentle as they come. Her shyness shows when she first meets new people, but give her time, a quiet home, and a pocketful of treats, and she’ll start to show you her affectionate side. Diana thrives in calm environments and finds comfort in routine, preferring long, unrushed walks where she can sniff and take in her surroundings at her own pace. Once she trusts you, she’ll quietly seek your company and settle in for peaceful, shared moments. She does best in a home without other dogs, and with children aged 13 and up. Diana is house-trained, easing her transition into a new home. Separation anxiety is part of her story, so she’d love an adopter who is home most of the time or can provide a slow, thoughtful routine to help her build confidence. She is a sweet, attentive observer who simply wants a safe place to call her own and someone patient enough to let her bloom. Give Diana the supportive, loving environment she craves, and she’ll reward you with lifelong loyalty. By the way, she’s an Aquarius—no surprise she’s got such a unique, sensitive personality.
