About Pantera

Pantera is a loyal, affectionate Dutch Shepherd who craves attention and loves being around people.

Inside the house, Pantera does well—she’s curious, checks everything out, then becomes a calm presence. She does fine with male dogs but may get territorial with some female dogs, so introductions are important before bringing her home with other pets. Pantera is fully house trained and knows basic commands like “sit,” though she may need a minute to remember them when she’s excited.
