Meet Gigi! This spirited one-and-a-half-year-old German Shepherd mix radiates playful energy and charm, wrapped in a striking red and black coat. Currently living in Amherst, MA, Gigi is a vibrant young lady with an affectionate heart and an eagerness to learn. Each morning, she's ready for breakfast at 6:30 AM before embarking on her favorite ritual: a refreshing walk in the park where she sniffs every flower and greets the morning sun, showing off her elegant shepherd trot. Weighing around 50 pounds, Gigi is growing into a large, strong beauty. She's been working on obedience training, knowing commands like sit, wait, and leave it. Her intelligence and desire to please mean that positive reinforcement and consistent guidance will help her build confidence around new people and dogs. An affectionate companion, Gigi is managing some separation anxiety and is still working on crate training. She needs a family who can provide the structure and love required to make her feel secure when left alone. This loyal pup expresses her affection by leaning into you for cuddles and keeping a watchful eye on you. Gigi attends doggy day camp, learning new skills and socializing with other pups. She’s had successful playdates with other dogs, though she can be shy at first. While she has never been around cats, her guardian believes she could do well with older kids who can match her energy. Spayed, house-trained, microchipped, and fully vaccinated, Gigi needs a loving home with a securely fenced yard and an active family ready for her joyful quirks.
