What are you waiting for? Apply today! Artemis, also lovingly nicknamed Moo, is a 7-year-old female German Shepherd Dog looking for a patient and loving home. She is incredibly sweet, shy, and affectionate, forming close bonds with her people. Her friendly nature shines through both at home and on walks, making her a joy to be around. Artemis is wonderful with young children, offering gentle companionship and loyalty. Since a recent unfortunate dog attack, Artemis has developed some defensive behavior toward other dogs and now experiences separation anxiety, which is well managed with medication. She has always been an inside dog, is house trained, and does well when left indoors for long periods. However, she is not good with cats and now needs a home where she can be the only pet or where thoughtful, gradual introductions to other dogs can occur. Artemis delights in walks, has great leash manners, and enjoys outdoor adventures involving water—shallow lakeshores or kiddie pools are a favorite, though she avoids deep water. Playtime with plush toys, fetch, and hide and seek keep her happy and active. Artemis is fully vaccinated and will need to be spayed as a requirement of her adoption, with a $300 refundable deposit held until spay proof is provided. Her family is seeking a new loving home due to severe health issues that prevent them from keeping her. Give them the home they have been waiting for. Apply today.
