Greta
Greta is a beautiful almost 2-year-old working line German Shepherd who finds herself in need of a new home through no fault of her own.
Greta is a very friendly girl that enjoys meeting new people, she can get a little excited at first and will jump up, but soon settles and is happy hanging out and receiving pats. Whilst Greta hasn’t interacted with a lot of children, out and about she is happy to say hello to them. In the home, Greta can be a little boisterous during playtime and may accidentally knock over small children, she would suit a home where everyone is over 5, that have experience living with a boisterous large-breed dog.
Greta is a clever girl that knows her basic commands, she loves to be told she is a good girl and will do anything to please her humans. Greta is motivated by both food and toys; she loves learning and would do well attending further obedience classes. Training your dog is a great way to bond and have fun, Greta will be the type of dog that you can teach party tricks to and would do well in further training such as agility.
An area where Greta needs work is her leash manners, right now, the outside world is very exciting, she pulls towards everything full steam ahead and is lacking in any manners or leash foundation skills. Greta is currently walked on a Halti, however even this proves difficult to stop her pulling, Greta’s new family need to be physically strong to control her and committed to working on her leash walking over time. Greta has responded well in a short session with a trainer; however, this will need ongoing work in her new home.
Greta enjoys the company of other dogs, sometimes she can get a little frustrated and will pull hard towards them when she wants to say hello, but there is no aggression shown, just a teenager that wants to get her way. Greta has frequented an off-lead dog park and gets along with dogs both big and small, she is generally quite submissive with bigger dogs that intimidate her, she will only bark at others if they bark at her.
Greta would prefer to be the only dog in her new home.
Greta has grown up with a cat and likes to cuddle up with them, she may be able to live with a cat in her new home, however slow introductions and separation at first would be required. Greta hasn’t been tested with other small pets or livestock.
Greta is an active girl that will need plenty of exercise and mental stimulation, she enjoys puzzles and figuring things out, she would love to take part in games, training sessions, treat puzzles and other activities that will keep her mind working whilst building her confidence.
Greta will make a great family companion for someone that wants an active dog that can be involved in everything. Greta will thrive with some further training and has such a beautiful, sweet temperament, she will be your loyal, best friend.
