Nosey German Shepherd Dog Glendale, AZ

Nosey is Full of Life and Ready for Fun in the Sun

She is a 1 1/2 year old, female, small, black-and-tan German Shepherd. Nosey is such a little cutie pie! This young, energetic girl came to us very thin and looking a bit sad. But she is such a sweetheart that we HAD to save her! Nosey is a real people pleaser, which is adorable to watch. She has been working with expert trainer at The Barking Dog in Scottsdale and he reports that she is a wonderful student. When Nosey first came to us, we quickly learned that she was very reactive to other dogs. But in stepped Ryan to work with her, and we are SO proud of our girl and all the progress she’s made. She’s been hanging out in play groups with other dogs and has learned wonderful doggie manners. In addition, Ryan has worked with her on obedience, and she’s now a well-behaved doggie. She does still react through fences, but once she gets up close to the other dogs, she just wants to play! We recommend dogs that are larger breed and not dominate for her playmates. Small dogs and cats are not recommended for this active girl.

This girl is high energy and needs an active family that could provide plenty of physical and mental exercise, as well as continual positive obedience training. Now that’s she’s got the basics down, we think she’d do great learning agility or other dog sports. She loves to work her nose on the ground checking out everything so a walker and hiker partner would be perfect. We would recommend older children since she’s rambunctious and active and may knock down little ones.
