Hi everyone, my name is Ebony and I am a very rambunctious young lady who just wants to love, cuddle and kiss on my humans. Whenever you are loving on me, I like to do these little moans to let you know that I love you. I am just now learning how to play with toys and boy are there a lot of them at my foster mom's house. My first day here I managed to fall into the pool and now I love to play on the top step and prance around. I am not too sure about swimming yet, but I have swam a couple of times.
I am an alpha female and want to rule the roost, however, my foster mom is working on teaching me that I am not the boss, I am pretty stubborn but, trying to learn. I am still pretty skinny, but in time I will fill out to be a gorgeous dog. I walk very well on a leash with my foster brother and sisters and get very excited when I see that leash is coming out and we are getting to go walking.
I have not yet decided if I want to be friendly to kitties, I really want to just chase them around. I can sit with them and next to them as long as they don't talk to me, but the minute they talk to me, I want to chase them around the house and into their gated room. I don't want to hurt them, but I think the kitties think I do, so they run and then I run and it is a fun little game.
I am just now learning how to play with other dogs, and share. It's been a bit of a challenge learning to share, however, I am now doing really good at it, but I am still a bit pushy and just need a strong person to love me and teach me everything right from wrong. I don't really bark alot except for when my foster brothers and sisters aren't doing what I want them to do or they are barking at something outside. I don't really know what they are barking at, but if they are barking, I just can't help but join in.
Please come meet me and let me be your new best friend.
NOTE: In our experience many German Shepherd Dogs are very good with kids. In our bios, we may provide information on our experience with a particular dog and children. However AGSDR discourages ALL unsupervised animal/child interaction. Children should be supervised at all times when they interact with ANY animal, whether it is a horse, dog, cat, bunny, lizard, or any other species. Even loving household pets can have a grumpy day, or otherwise get tired of a child's attention, so proper supervision is essential for the well being of any child and any pet.
The entire biography of this dog is based solely upon our volunteers' experiences with the dog. The dog's age and weight are estimates, and statements about the health, temperament, training, and ability to get along with other animals, children, cats and other dogs, are estimated solely based on our volunteer's experiences with this dog. Your experiences with this dog may be quite different than those of our volunteers.
