Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Loretta, primarily a German Shepherd but with a bit of Belgian Shepherd Dog thrown in for good measure, brought to the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 11/9 as a stray. Loretta weighs 46 pounds and is about a year old. She looks rather solemn in her photos. However, she is anything but that! She has so much personality and is full of fun-loving energy! In her excitement this spunky gal will jump on you. Loretta is playful and active. She loves treats and takes them gently but does not know to sit for them. Since she is so crazy about treats, it may be fairly easy to teach her some commands. Loretta is very curious and spent a fair amount of time at the shelter wall, leaning on the ledge and looking out at the parking lot and yard at all the interesting people, dogs and vehicles. There is nothing timid about Loretta. She looks as though she has been well cared for and yet no one has come looking for her! This amiable girl has such a pleasant nature and truly is a delightful youngster! She walks quite well on a leash and she did her business when she got out into the yard. Her dream is to live inside with her people and be an important part of their lives. Therefore if you are looking for a guard or watch dog, you need not apply! Are you able to assist Loretta in finding her new home?
