About Xena

Meet Xena, a striking Dutch Shepherd and Great Dane mix with a tall, graceful frame and a personality to match her regal name. About 4 years old and around 70 lbs, she’s got a short black and white/cream coat and the kind of presence photographs can’t quite capture. Xena thrives on interaction and has proven herself comfortable in the company of other dogs—she’s currently at a boarding daycare and socializes with dogs of every size. Outgoing and warm, she’s done well meeting children, though she hasn’t lived with them long-term. Xena shifts easily from playful energy to lounging and is always eager to be included in family activities. She needs a secure, stockade-fenced yard—her long legs make her an impressive jumper and she can clear typical chain-link when curious or bored. She’s house-trained, crate-trained, walks well on a leash, and is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. If you’re interested, Xena is available for foster-to-adopt or foster. There’s no substitute for meeting her in person—she’s a true one-of-a-kind. Your new best friend is just one click away.
