Marla is an 8-year-old German Shepherd who’s looking for a calm, patient home willing to help her build confidence over time. She’s sensitive and can be anxious, especially around other dogs and children, so she’ll need to be your one and only companion. Small kids and energetic animals overwhelm her—she’s best in an adult-only, quiet setting. A secure 6-foot fence is a must, as Marla can easily jump lower barriers. She’s house trained, spayed, and her vaccinations are up to date. Marla would do best with someone committed to giving her structure, support from a professional trainer, and gradual introductions to new experiences. Expect a slow process at first, but with routine and patience, Marla can become a dedicated, loving friend. Multiple meet-and-greets may be required so she can feel comfortable with her adopter. Marla’s adoption is limited to within 50 miles of the Omaha/Council Bluffs area to allow for ongoing access to training support. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
