Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Faithful companion material here! Classic German shepherd temperament.
Beautiful Kami comes to us from a shelter where she ended up for a second time. The first time she was adopted was in 2018 as a young adult. Then her owner dumped her in early 2025. He was contacted via her microchip to come get her, he did not show up.
Even though it appears she experienced extreme neglect the last 7 years of her life, she still remains a beautiful, loving German shepherd. A wonderful representative of the breed. Kami is about 8 years old and weighs approximately 65 pounds.
Our veterinarian feels that the damage to Kami's ears was caused by untreated ear infections and fly strike. Poor Kami! Her ears are now healed and she's healthy. Kami has a broken toe that was never treated, but it does not seem to bother her. She also has pannus. This is a chronic inflammatory eye disease and she will require eye drops every day for the rest of her life. Please note: Kami is so good about getting her eye drops! It's more of an obedience exercise for her which her foster mom follows up with a treat. Good girl! For a dog her age, her teeth are in amazing shape.
Kami is crate trained and housetrained and rides well in the car. She would very much like to ride along with you whenever possible, although she does need a boost up into her foster mom's vehicle. If Kami is not able to go with you, she's fine at home. She is good in the yard and would like to keep your yard squirrel free. She does not bark a lot. In fact, her foster mom has only heard her bark once. Kami knows how to "sit", "come" and "shake".
Even though Kami enjoys time in the yard, she savors time indoors with her people and thinks the dog bed is the greatest invention ever!
Kami gets along with other dogs. We aren't sure about cats. She loves people! All people. Kami is a HUGE tail wagger. What's that thumping noise? Well, it's Kami wagging her tail! She's a very happy girl with a wonderful attitude.
Kami's adoption fee is $150. She is spayed, microchipped, up to date on vaccinations and will come with her eye drops.
