Hi, I’m Xenna, a 75-pound mystery girl with a big brain and an even bigger heart. I came to the shelter as a stray, so nobody knows my past, but here’s a fun twist: I understand German. Yep — tell me “sitz” or “platz,” and I’m on it. Pretty cool, right? I’m still figuring out leashes (I tend to forget that humans prefer a polite stroll instead of a power march), so I’ll need someone patient who can help me practice. I’m also the kind of dog who notices open gates the way humans notice open donut boxes — so I’ll need a secure home and yard to keep me safe. I warm up slowly, but once I trust you, I really want to stick close. I’d love a family who can help me feel steady in the world and show me what it’s like to be loved for good. I’ll also need to meet any dog siblings beforehand to make sure we’re a good match. If you’re looking for a smart, loyal girl with a little mystery and a lot of potential, I think we should meet.
