Born July 6, 2019 Vela is a gorgeous female German Shepherd mix who is ready for that person or family to call her own! Here is a little bit about her: for the last 6 months Vela has been in training to be the best dog she can be. She’s very high energy and would love nothing more than a playmate of similar size in her forever home – preferably male and one that would let her “lead” her way. Vela could also be happy as an only dog as long as it was an active home where she was part of the family. Vela has that typical shepherd aloofness when meeting someone new and tends to warm up quicker to women. Once Vela know you’re one of the good guys she bonds deeply to her person and listens well to commands. Vela is not a fan of small children and due to her high prey drive cannot be in a home with cats or small animals. Vela would be a wonderful running, hiking or outdoor buddy. She also is completely content chilling with her people on the sofa! Vela needs lots of physical exercise and mental stimulation to keep her centered and happy. She is protective of her yard and home and will alert strangers with a large warning bark but is otherwise fairly quiet at home. Vela has great leash manners and enjoys car rides because that means a new adventure 😊 Her forever home will require a secure 6 foot fence with adults and without cats or other small animals. We are confident Vela’s best fit home is out there! Could it be yours? Applications can be accessed at www.mikeyschance.com
