Description:
Gia was picked up as a stray and never claimed by owners. She is a 5-6 year old female german shepherd, weighing about 51 lbs. She is underweight and was still producing milk when she was impounded, so has had puppies recently. This pretty girl is as sweet as they come. She has a very quiet and laid back personality. She's a little on the timid side but she's easily won over with kind words and praise. She loves attention and has grown very fond of the kennel staff. She approaches new people with caution but once she trusts you she'll be your best friend. She's very relaxed in familiar situations but gets a little anxious when there's something unfamiliar going on. She was a little frightened of the camera and was trying to hide behind the kennel staff. Once it was put it on the ground and she was allowed to sniff it she did much better. She enjoys being around laid back dogs but will put a young "in your face" dog in his place. She was extremely gentle with the clinic cat and was actually thinking about crawling in her bed next to her when she got up and walked away. She has definitively been around a bossy cat before because she was very careful to respect the kitty's wishes. Please feel free to fill out an Adoption Application on our main website, <a href=http://www.midwestanimalrescue.org>www.midwestanimalrescue.org</a>, by clicking on the Form/Applications link under Website Features. Thank You! *The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility and does not come with a pedigree. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed. Sometimes the pets appear to be a particular breed(s) in the pictures we receive from our rescue partners and when they arrive we are surprised to see an entirely different breed(s) in person! If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess. It is with deep longing that we wish there was a breed called "cute" as we believe all of our dogs would fall under this new breed classification! Completion of an Adoption Application via our website www.midwestanimalrescue.org is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is the first step in our adoption process.
*Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption. When you adopt a pet from Midwest Animal Rescue and Services, your adoption fee covers: Microchip and registration, Core Vaccines including Rabies, Distemper and bordetella, age appropriate heartworm testing or FeLV-FIV testing, sterilization, heartworm/flea-tick prevention and deworming while in foster care. Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks. Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance.
