Meet Jeanette, a striking German Shepherd mix from Mason City, IA. This beautiful girl has a lot going for her, but she’s still figuring out how to trust her surroundings. Though she can be a bit shy initially, Jeanette is incredibly intelligent and eager to please, ready to learn and grow with the right person. Jeanette loves being outdoors and would thrive as a walking partner or hiking buddy for someone who enjoys exploring. However, she has shown some territorial behavior towards other pets, so a home where she’s the only pet would be ideal for her confidence-building journey. Though Jeanette is learning that the world can be a safe place, she needs a patient owner with experience to help her bloom. With love and structure, she has all the potential to be an incredibly devoted companion. Let's make her next chapter a happy one!
