About Annie

Meet Annie! Annie is a spirited five-year-old German Shepherd and has a lively blend of intelligence and loyalty, wrapped in a lovely sable and bicolor coat. Weighing in at around 55 pounds, she embodies the vibrant Shepherd spirit. Whether she's bounding through the woods chasing butterflies or twirling joyfully under the open sky, Annie thrives on outdoor adventures. Smart and eager to please, Annie has completed formal obedience training. She confidently responds to commands like sit, stay, and down. Annie is also crate trained, often choosing her crate as a cozy retreat. A warm-hearted companion, she adjusts effortlessly to her caregiver's daily routines and loves being involved in all activities. Annie really shines in open spaces where she can run and explore. A home with a securely fenced yard or a rural setting would be ideal for her to stretch her legs and enjoy nature. While she's playful, Annie needs an experienced pet parent familiar with German Shepherd needs, as she requires structure and positive reinforcement. Unfortunately, she is not compatible with other dogs or cats, so she needs a single-pet, child-free environment. Annie does have a history of being overwhelmed around other dogs, which could lead to reactive behavior, so it’s crucial for her caregiver to provide consistent boundaries and ongoing training. Though she has a past medical condition, she has not had recent seizure episodes. Her unique health needs include not being spayed as anesthesia poses a risk for her. This loving companion is looking for a patient person who can support her needs and share life’s adventures.
