About Vallen

Vallen is a striking 2-year-old black German Shepherd with tall, expressive ears and a gentle soul. She gets along well with other dogs of all sizes after proper introductions, and really comes out of her shell when she has a canine friend to show her the ropes. People are still a bit intimidating to her, so a confident dog at home is essential to help her feel safe and encourage her brave side. Vallen spent her early life as a stray, relying on her own resourcefulness and the occasional kindness of strangers. Now, she's settling into the comfort of a real home, picking up new habits—she already uses a doggie door like a pro and enjoys sunbathing or relaxing outdoors when the weather allows. She’s looking for a patient adopter who understands shy dogs and is ready to help her keep building confidence. Leash skills are still new for her, so some help in that area will be part of the journey. With time, gentle guidance, and another friendly dog as a companion, she’ll keep blossoming into the loyal, loving German Shepherd she wants to be. Vallen is spayed, current on vaccinations, house trained, and waiting in Sioux City, IA for someone to give her a chance at a real forever home. Click apply to start the adoption process.
