Weighing between 50-55 pounds, Shadow is spayed and up to date on her vaccinations, making her a healthy companion choice. Shadow is fully potty trained and crate trained, which makes her even more of a catch. She loves to romp around the yard but is just as happy chilling out after playtime. Shadow does great with other dogs and kids, making her an excellent addition to a family. However, her interactions with cats are still a mystery. To help her flourish, Shadow needs a home with a fully fenced yard where she can run freely and enjoy her outdoor time. She's still working on her leash manners, so patience and training will be key.
