Willa von Wehris

My story

Willa von Wehr is a gorgeous, 1-2 year old plush-coated shepherd mix with a sweet and silly personality that will melt your heart. She is a smaller girl with a big heart and an even bigger love for people. Willa is full of charm and soaks up all the attention she can get—leaning on you for pets and cuddles. She walks beautifully on leash and comes out happy and ready to go. Willa enjoys group walks and is content walking alongside other dogs. She greets them nicely, tail wagging, and is very happy being part of the pack. In playgroups, Willa shines. She enters with a wagging tail and eagerly greets the other dogs. She enjoys romping around, initiating play, and indulging her playful side. She often has a special boyfriend, so if you are looking for a pair, she can share her latest beau with you. Willa knows her sit, is food-motivated, and eager to learn. She’s the kind of dog who will quickly become your best friend—loyal, loving, and full of joy! (No cats please.) Rescued from the Inland Valley animal shelter. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN Willa von Wehris YOU MUST FILL OUT AN ADOPTION APPLICATION ON OUR WEBSITE: www.sheprescue.org Application link: http://www.sheprescue.org/Application_to_Adopt_a_Dog%20Main.html Based on our experience, Westside's current thinking is to usually match first-time shepherd owners with a mix versus a purebred shepherd. Mixes are "softer" and somewhat more malleable. Exceptions can be made, however, for first-time adopters who show the confidence and leadership tendencies that purebreds will respect and respond to. Counselors have to use good judgment in assessing the attributes of the adopter, as well as of the dog. If you have doubts, get a second opinion from Robin or another experienced counselor.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Willa von Wehris, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
