Would be best suited in a home with older kids if any or adults.<br/><br/>Birka loves using her nose, running and chasing. I could see her excel in various sports such as scent work, barn hunt, lure coursing, and likely more. She is walked on a prong and learning a heel position. Has been introduced to an e-collar by a previous foster. We are currently working on adding more duration to her commands.<br/><br/>Birka will require a confident handler who is gentle yet firm with their commands and expectations. One that will provide structure, consistency and who will continue encouraging her to make the right decisions. Like a real German shepherd, she is guardian and protective of her environnment if she is not properly structured.
