Meet Fiona

Fiona is a 4.5 month old female mixed breed dog who was surrendered to a shelter by her breeder. She is likely a product of an "oops" litter. We were told her mama is full German Shepherd and papa is a German Shepherd / Labrador Retriever mix.

Fiona is living in a foster home with 2 adult German Shepherd dogs (1 male and 1 female). Fiona is very smart and already knows the words sit”, kennel”, and “off”, which means all feet need to be on the ground. She is crate trained but still working on being housebroken.

She is perfect on a leash, does not bolt out the front door when given the opportunity, and prefers to be wherever her foster mom is so she is your typical Velcro dog. She is still working on not chewing on non-toy items but is getting better and responds very well to “uh uh”. She is crated in a room by herself and even then, is generally quiet at night, only whining briefly when first put in her crate. However, she will whine when she wants to come inside.

She has learned to not jump and nibble on a 1 ½ year old grandson that frequently visits her foster home, licking most times instead.

She loves being outdoors, often walking the perimeter of the yard, looking for new smells.

She frequently tilts her head in typically German Shepherd Dog fashion, is affectionate, often rolling over to get belly rubs, and is submissive to the 2 adult dogs in the home. She is playful, loves everyone, and doesn’t know a stranger. She loves to learn, is very smart, and is very treat motivated.

Due to her drive and desire to play with other dogs, Fiona would do best in a home with an equally energetic playmate.

She has not been tested with cats. For people with the time to acclimate to kitties, and for a home with a dog savvy cat we assume she will be cat workable.
