Faith is an 8-month-old female German Shepherd who’s been growing up at the Turlock Animal Shelter since August. She landed there after a cruelty case but, fortunately for her, avoided most of the abuse. Shelter staff say she’s a genuinely sweet dog with a lot of promise who’s spent far too much of her young life waiting for a real home. Faith is outgoing and affectionate, eager for the world outside the shelter walls. She’s not yet house trained and will need her adopter to have her spayed—this requires a $100 refundable deposit on top of a low adoption fee. Faith gets along with other dogs and is looking for someone willing to help her reach her potential. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
