All initial introductions facilitated at WHS to ensure everyone gets along. <br/>-Can do Apartment Living: No Thanks.<br/>-Potty Trained: Appears to be. <br/>-Bite History: Nope.<br/>-Positive Reward Based Obedience Classes Required: Nope.<br/>-Energy Level: High<br/>-Needs Medical Procedure Before Going Home: Yes, a Spay and microchip provided by WHS.<br/> <br/>Bonnie is a beautiful young shepherd who came to the shelter through no fault of her own. Like many shepherds, she is incredibly loyal, affectionate, and eager to form a deep bond with her person. Bonnie is truly a large baby at heart, complete with the classic shepherd anxiety and sensitivity. She’s looking for a patient and understanding home that recognizes the commitment involved in raising and guiding a young dog. She will thrive with a family willing to provide structure, reassurance, and consistency as she continues to build confidence. Her ideal home will understand the importance of proper nutrition, regular veterinary care, mental enrichment, and daily physical exercise.
