Duchess is a dog lover's dog. She is always happy - whether she is joining you on a two-mile walk or laying next to you on the couch. There is nothing this sweet girl does not love to do. Duchess is calm, house-trained, and knows basic commands, like "sit". She rarely barks and has been an amazing companion to her foster family's 5-year-old so. She currently lives with two cats and has interacted well with other dogs during play dates, so would probably do well in a home with other pets. More than anything, Duchess is looking for a person or family that is ready to give her the forever home she deserves. She will repay you with kisses, endless attention, and shows lots of love and gratitude.
NOTE: In our experience many German Shepherd Dogs are very good with kids. In our bios, we may provide information on our experience with a particular dog and children. However AGSDR discourages ALL unsupervised animal/child interaction. Children should be supervised at all times when they interact with ANY animal, whether it is a horse, dog, cat, bunny, lizard, or any other species. Even loving household pets can have a grumpy day, or otherwise get tired of a child's attention, so proper supervision is essential for the well being of any child and any pet.
The entire biography of this dog is based solely upon our volunteers' experiences with the dog. The dog's age and weight are estimates, and statements about the health, temperament, training, and ability to get along with other animals, children, cats and other dogs, are estimated solely based on our volunteer's experiences with this dog. Your experiences with this dog may be quite different than those of our volunteers.
