Meet Winnie!! This beautiful 3 year old girl is one happy go-lucky and energetic White Shepherd! Winnie is stunning to look at - with her beautiful all white coat, white eyelashes and pink freckled nose – she’s a real beauty! She’s also very athletic, weighing about 75 pounds, and strong as anything! She is everything you’d want in a German Shepard: smart, loyal, and fun with a big heart. Did you say “Let’s play Fetch”? She’ll do this until she drops from exhaustion if you let her! How about a walk down the street? She’s all over it. Car Ride? She’s in that door in a nano-second! ! A game of chase with her collie foster sister? Yes, please! A play date with other dogs? What Fun! She is an energetic girl, very athletic with a determined focus but very attentive to her people. She is sweet and very affectionate. She’ll lay her head on your lap and look at you with adoring eyes and the biggest heart you’ve ever seen. She’s a real snuggler and likes to be around you every minute. She loves when her foster mom baby talks to her softly – she responds to “Baby Girl”, “Girly Girl”, “Pretty Girl” and even “Winifred”. She just loves being talked to. She is highly food motivated, making her an excellent training candidate. She learns quickly, is confident and approaches new challenges with enthusiasm. She is fully potty trained, knows basic commands – “Sit” and “Wait” and has excellent recall. While she has not been crate trained, Winnie can be trusted to roam freely when her foater parents are away. If she hears her name, she’s there! Winnie is best suited for an active home that will play fetch with and take her for at least one long walk daily. Her furever home wants a young dog ready to grow into a loyal companion. She is great with other dogs, ignores cats for the most part, and is quick to cozy up to older children. She might be a bit too strong for very young children. She needs a firm hand learning new skills; leash training is one skill she’s struggling to master but she sure does show lots of enthusiasm for it! An at least four foot tall fenced in yard is a must as Winnie likes to squeeze out any door and explore the neighborhood on her own terms. If you’re looking for a smart, friendly, loyal, and uniquely beautiful and sweet German Shepherd who will play hard, cuddle quietly for long periods of time and grow old with you - Winnie is for you! Winnie is a just one sweet and good girl! If you're interested in adding Winnie to your family, please contact your adoption coordinator. If you do not yet have an adoption coordinator, please complete an adoption application at www.freedomgermanshepherdrescue.org . Winnie is being fostered outside of Greensboro, NC.
