Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hey there, I'm Helga, the bouncing ball of energy in a furry package! I'm a six-month-old German Shepherd Mix, tipping the scales at a nimble 29.2 pounds. With my sleek black and tan coat and my sparkling personality, I'm ready to charm my way into your heart.
First things first, let's talk about my resume: I'm housebroken, crate trained, and already spayed – pretty impressive for a pup my age, if I do say so myself! I'm good with kids, dogs, and even those mysterious creatures called cats. No special needs here, just a whole lot of love to give!
Now, let's talk requirements. I'm a puppy, through and through, which means I've got energy to spare! So, my ideal home would have a fenced yard where I can zoom around to my heart's content. And don't forget about playtime – I thrive on it! Whether it's with my humans, my furry siblings, or even a squeaky toy, I'm always up for a good time.
Speaking of furry siblings, I've got a two-year-old Golden Retriever mix foster brother who's my absolute favorite playmate. We run, we wrestle, and we have a blast together! But don't worry, I'll listen to verbal cues and respect boundaries – I'm a smart pup, after all.
When I'm not busy burning off energy, you can find me curled up on the couch, showering my humans with kisses and cuddles. I'm a real sweetheart, if I do say so myself!
So, if you're looking for a fun-loving, affectionate companion to join your family, look no further. I'm Helga, and I can't wait to bring a whole lot of joy and laughter into your life!
