German Shepherd Rescue of Los Angeles

Some dogs are purbred German Shepherds at heart if not 100% in genetics. Abigail is a darling 4 year old black and tan female. She was rescued from an animal shelter after she injured herself on a fence. The shelter employees know our rule about only taking in purebred shepherds but they told such tales of this sweet girl that is mostly shepherd we knew we at least had to meet her. When Grace, our founder, went over to Abigail's cage she put her paw out for Grace to hold. Abigail does know how to make people fall in love with her! She has such a loving and sweet face that we knew this girl had to be saved. She is somewhat smaller and more compact than a typical shepherd and her hair is shorter and doesn't seem to shed quite as much.

She is VERY sweet and friendly. Her nickname at the rescue is The Happiest Girl Around! She is very loving and her whole body shakes with anticipation when someone comes to give her attention. Abigail is easy to walk and LOVES to roll in the grass and then flop down next to you. She gives tons of kisses -- some of her initial kisses are very enthusiastic but she calms down quickly. She makes the volunteers laugh all the time with her antics to get attention. She'll jump up and down as if she is saying, "Hey, look at me!" She tries very hard to be just like the other shepherds. She'll quietly rub her face on you to get your attention. She is good with other dogs but her enthusiasm does tend to annoy some dogs. She would chase a cat so Abigail is looking for a dog-only home.

Abigail was rescued from a shelter on her last day.
