Lena is a 1.5-year-old shepherd with a striking black and brown coat and a quiet, thoughtful presence. When she first arrived, she was understandably unsure of her new surroundings and preferred to stay settled in her space, moving only when needed and taking the world in carefully. Once outside, she showed she’s comfortable on leash, trotting along politely and even taking care of her business right away, suggesting she may be housebroken. Lena is sensitive and cautious with handling, often needing a little time and space before accepting touch, but she cooperates calmly when given gentle guidance. Underneath her shy exterior is a beautiful, elegant girl who is still learning that the world can be safe and kind.
