Guten Tag (Hello in German)
I am Josie, a very smart, 70 lbs., three-year-old girl, with classic GSD coloring.
My fosters have been very patient with me. When they have guests, I love to meet and play with them.
I was enrolled in a training program to improve my behavior around other dogs while on walks. I have improved, but still need practice. I understand heel, stay, and sit, the basics of being a good girl. I am working on being a better passenger, learning to relax and not get overly excited.
Some of my favorite things are walks, playing with my toys, and napping in the sun. I love when my foster parents say, “Get a toy, Josie, and let’s play.” I run over to my toy box and throw a few out until I find my favorite.
I have access to the yard through a doggie door, so my foster parents don’t have to get up to take me out to relieve myself. At night, I am not crated, although I have access to it. I quietly check on my family. I am very good at getting into my crate when they need to go shopping or to other appointments. I just nap and wait for them to return with lots of kisses.
My best home would be with active people. I have never been around children, so I cannot say how I might behave. It will be best for me to be the only dog.
I am really looking for a committed family because I know I have lots of potential and want an opportunity to prove how loving and wonderful I can be.
If I sound like the girl you are looking for, I would love to meet you. You can ask my foster parents any questions you may have about me. I know they will miss me, but we are all excited for me to find my forever family.
