Sasha - Adopted


Name: Sasha
Sex:
Female (altered)
Breed:
German Shepherd
Age:
4 years
Location:
West Branch, MI


Vet/Medical Info: Sasha is spayed and up-to-date on vaccines, she is heartworm negative.

Owner Info: Sasha was a dog that was taken as foster for a shelter, her foster Mom did not have the heart to return her when they asked. They planned to euth her because they could not find a home so her foster Mom became her Mom and took her with the intention of placing her in a forever home. Sasha has pannus and her eyes are very cloudy looking. She seems to see shadows and does just fine with no major issues. Night is the time that seems to be the worst for her vision. She was started for search and rescue but due to her pannus she was released. She knows sit, stay and shake. Sasha is an indoor dog with the run of the house, she is housebroken and leash trained. Sasha is an outgoing girl, she is good with people and older children (teenagers), great with other dogs and cats - she actually sleeps with the cats and bathes them. She is not good with chickens or rabbits, she thinks chickens are squeaky toys. She hates having her nails done and may try and nip at you. Sasha adapts well to new situations, she is great with new people, she just needs time to get to know them. She is a great dog and she just needs a chance at life. She was in the shelter for over a year and then has been with her current owner for over a year. She needs to find that forever home. She is moving in about 3 weeks and can not take her. She needs that home or her owner fears for her life. Owner has stated Sasha is due for vaccines (except Rabies - rabies was a 3-year) at the end of April 2012, but if placement is found she'd have Sasha vaccinated before then.

  1. Please call me, I will happily give this girl a forever home. I have experience with blind dogs, as well as deaf dogs too. I once had a blind and deaf Aussie, and raised him from a 5 week old baby because he was going to be euthanized at a shelter due to his limitations. Turned out to be a great kid, and even found a forever home.

  2. Hi Jane. Sasha's owner was actually meeting up with a potential adopter today so she may have found a home. We will call her owner to see if she is still available or not and let you know. Sounds like you could provide a wonderful home for Sasha!
