Erika's Story

Meet Erika (aka Zelda) Erika - lovingly called Zelda by her foster mom - is a German Shepherd mix, around 6 years old, and the definition of a sweet, gentle old soul. She is house trained, good with kids, and does well in a crate. Zelda loves the snow, enjoys a calm routine, and is happy just being near her people. She has an easygoing personality and would fit beautifully into just about any home looking for a loyal, loving companion. Zelda is the kind of dog who brings a peaceful presence and a whole lot of heart. If you're looking for a steady, affectionate girl who's past the puppy chaos and ready to just love you, she may be the perfect match. Please feel free to fill out an adoption application if you're interested in giving Zelda the forever home she deserves.
