Barbie is a sweet yet independent girl as is most GSD's are. She is very smart and already knows to go straight to her play pen when we open it for her. She gets along great with the other dogs in her foster home and is learning her house manners. She loves to play tug of war with the others in the house.
​Barbie will require several weeks of Positive obedience training because of her breed. She will need constant socializing with people and other animals. She will need consistency. 
​We will only adopt her to a family that is very familiar with her breed. Experience with German Shepherds is also a requirement., we want to be safe and set Barbie up for success. A positive reinforcement training agreement must be signed. No acceptations.
​We will only adopt to families with older children.
A 6 foot fence is also required. No chain collars, pinch collars, or chokers will be allowed.
