About Diva

Meet Diva, a beautiful German Shepherd and Husky mix, eager to find her forever home. At just 11 months old and weighing 48 pounds, she has a big heart and a vibrant personality that truly lives up to her name. Diva is a Velcro dog; she loves to be by your side, soaking up all the attention she can get. Being highly trainable and incredibly smart, she is ready to learn the ropes of being a house dog. However, she does need a little extra understanding and patience as she adapts to her new life indoors, especially since she was previously kept outside and is not yet potty trained. Diva does have some anxieties that her new owner should be aware of. She’s still learning how to interact with other dogs, so patience will be key as she adjusts. Additionally, she’s not a fan of cats and may take time to build confidence. If you’re looking for a loyal friend who follows you everywhere, Diva could be the perfect match. She's seeking someone who will invest the time to help her blossom into the amazing companion she has the potential to be. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
