My story

Bestie is a beautiful bi-black female German Shepherd believed to be around 10 months of age. Bestie was a stray therefore we do not officially know her history prior to arrival; however, we have reason to believe that she had a rough start to life.   Bestie is a pretty shy girl who hasn't seen much of the world and isn't sure how to interact just yet. She is such a sweetie when given the time and space to warm up but when rushed Bestie tends to freeze and/or pee herself. Prior to the shelter it is likely that Bestie had never been on a leash, kept inside, petted on, or generally cared for. She is making up for lost time and doing wonderfully already. Bestie will need a home that has the patience to guide her in finding her confidence.   Bestie loves other dogs - she is everyone's bestie! Having social, confident dogs around helps her come out of her shell quicker as she looks to them for guidance. She is more submissive with other dogs and doesn't know what to do if they get playing too rowdy just yet but she is learning quickly. She is a master at chase games! Bestie has had minimal introductions to cats and thus far done fine but that could change as she finds her footing as a house dog.    Bestie is just a kind hearted girl that is looking for a family that will give her the TLC she needs to thrive. If you are the home for her please email us at Tierhavenrescue@gmail.com for an adoption application or visit Tierhaven.rescuegroups.org for FAQsVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 26, 2025, 11:32 pm
