My name is Shadow!

Shadow is a gorgeous, high energy, one year old all black 62 lbs German Shepherd. She loves to snuggle and wants all of the attention and love from her people. She is very sweet and playful.
She is well behaved with the human children, though Shadow is still learning that the human toys aren’t hers to play with! Because of her strong herding instincts, Shadow would probably do best in a home with children over 5. She has not been tested with cats, but shows a lot of interest in small animals, so a home without cats would probably be best for this girl. She can be dog selective. She loves to run and play and to snuggle up next to the couch.
Shadow would thrive in an active home and with a handler that is familiar with working breed dogs, preferably with at least one other large dog in the home to help build her confidence. She isn’t food possessive, but doesn’t like to share her toys with her foster dog siblings. Shadow responds very well to correction from her humans. She knows ‘come’ ‘sit’, ‘down’, and ‘leave it’. She is extremely smart and eager to please, and adores attention and ear rubs. She is happiest when she can be snuggled up with her humans.
Shadow is crate trained, potty trained, and walks well on a leash with a prong collar.
