Gretchen

Meet Gretchen—a stunning 11-year-old German Shepherd with a graceful presence and a heart full of quiet love. <br/><br/>Gretchen came to us from a shelter in Moore, Oklahoma after her owner transitioned into a nursing home. While we don’t know all the details of her past, what we do know is that she’s a gentle, loyal companion who’s ready to find her next chapter with someone special.<br/><br/>This beautiful girl is sweet, affectionate, and enjoys being close to her people. She was previously trained to stay off furniture, so her version of cuddling is a little more refined—think sitting beside you for head scratches, ear rubs, and those oh-so-satisfying booty scratches. If you’re limber, she may even accept some floor-level snuggles.<br/><br/>Gretchen does have her boundaries (as any classy lady does 💁‍♀️)—she prefers not to have her belly touched. And she would do best as the only dog in the home, where she can fully relax and soak up all the love and attention she deserves. She’s happiest when she doesn’t have to share her space with other dogs.<br/><br/>Gretchen is the kind of dog you get to know over time—building trust and connection in a way that makes it all the more meaningful.<br/><br/>If you’re looking for a loyal, calm, and dignified companion who will be devoted to you, Gretchen may just be your girl.<br/><br/>- 11 years old<br/>- German Shepherd<br/>- Sweet, loyal, and loving<br/>- Must be the only dog in the home<br/>- Prefers respectful affection (no belly rubs, please!)<br/><br/>Gretchen is worth knowing… and even more worth loving.<br/><br/>Adopt Gretchen: https://bit.ly/AdoptIFR <br/>Foster Gretchen: https://bit.ly/FosterIFR
