About Arrow A

Meet Arrow! Arrow is a gentle and affectionate German Shepherd who recently came to the shelter with a group of seventeen dogs. Despite her recent challenges, she remains friendly, especially with other dogs, and shows a maternal instinct towards young pups. Although she is currently underweight and experiencing some hair loss, Arrow is receiving the care she needs to thrive. In the shelter, she tends to be a bit anxious, but that is understandable given her environment. Arrow enjoys her walks, often with her nose to the ground, exploring every scent she comes across. Her classic German Shepherd features are evident: a black saddle pattern, tall ears, and soulful eyes make her quite the beauty. Arrow will need to be spayed before going to her new home. Although we cannot guarantee her housetraining, she keeps her kennel tidy, which suggests she may adapt quickly. If you have other dogs, a meet-and-greet is required. Let's give Arrow the loving home she deserves. Are you ready to welcome this sweet girl into your life? What are you waiting for? Apply today!
