My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

What a smile, how is it that she's so happy? Janelle is a lovely soul full of excitement, happiness, and always ready to play. She has a curious nature and likes to investigate anything new.

Janelle is a smiley, vibrant, affectionate and sweet . Like a good shepherd she is extremely loyal to her folks. Janelle was relinquished earlier this year and boy are they missing out on a good dog.  She is food motivated, crate trained, learning to walk better on a leash, she likes to play fetch and play in the lake.

On one of her running escapades (before we owned her) Janelle got loose and broke her front right paw, unfortunately it healed out of its natural born position. At this time there is no need for medical intervention. It gives her no pain or bother and she gets along quite well. What we are learning about Janelle is that she was a wild child that grew up with no structure. This caused her to be a little nutty and reactive to strangers. We have her currently working with trainers an she is showing wonderful improvement an learning to trust new people. 

Janelle has shown a sweetness towards children and she absolutely loves to be with dogs. She still needs to warmup to some new dogs but is quite playful. On leash Janelle still needs some training on her impulse control during social settings with both dogs and adults. She is very excited by cats and annoys them with her pushy nature, very shepherd like in character. Although she isnt aggressive, we prefer she only lives with dog savvy confident cats.

We were told that she is a Golden Poodle and German shepherd mix. Her father was a very large golden doodle and mom was a shepherd. 

The ideal home for Janelle would include some loving humans that understand leash reactivity and stranger danger in dogs. She really needs an owner to commit to continuing her socialization and training. A person that enjoys spending free time with their dog and will take her under their guiding wing and into the loving shelter of their home.

 Kids over the age of 7 years old would be recommended. She can live with a housemate dog.
