Meet Millie! 🐾 This gorgeous 3½-year-old, 65-pound spayed female German Shepherd is looking for a forever home where she can truly shine. With her AKC registration, Millie is the embodiment of sweetness and silliness, ready to bring joy and protection to the right family. ❤️✨ Millie is healthy, microchipped, and up-to-date on all her core vaccinations. She adores meeting new people during walks but becomes quite the protective guardian when indoors. Millie's family has found that she needs some space and a sturdy crate for those surprise visits from unfamiliar faces. A home with space for play would be her ideal setting, so she can run her heart out and be the fabulous girl she is! 🏃‍♀️💨 While she used to be friendly with children, recent incidents have raised some red flags. Millie's been on a scary rollercoaster, lunging at her two young family members, which was alarming for everyone involved. 😱 But fear not! Millie would thrive best in a loving adult-only household where she can be the center of attention. She's also good with medium and large dogs, but her feelings towards tiny pups and cats are less than warm—best to keep those little furballs at a distance! 🐶❌🐱 Millie's a superstar at doggy daycare, easily making friends with her four-legged pals. She’s housetrained and enjoys roaming the house freely while her humans are away and loves her walks, prancing along like a pro on a leash. An added bonus? This calm passenger loves to join the crew for car rides! 🚗💕 Millie’s journey began when her family brought her home as a puppy from a breeder in Cotati. Though she’s been a cherished member of the family, managing her protective instincts around kids has turned into a bit of a puzzle. With all their love for her, they're seeking a new home where Millie can feel at ease and thrive. It's time for Millie to start a new chapter with you! Can you give her the loving space she deserves? If you know you can provide a safe haven free of the chaos that comes with young children, then Millie is ready to meet you! 🏡✨ You can meet Millie in beautiful Santa Rosa, and all it takes is a $100 adoption fee to welcome this fabulous girl into your life. But don’t forget, *you must apply through the Buddy App to make her your own!* ❤️🐕
