Description
Laika and her buddy, Athena Mae, were surrendered to a local shelter as their family felt they could no longer afford the girls. Recognizing that the girls would be most successful in finding a forever family through a rescue, shelter staff began reaching out to GSD rescues to see if they had openings. As many rescues have been sitting at or near capacity this year, finding placement wasn't easy. However, shelter staff kept up the search and kept the girls safe and loved until they found placement. We welcomed the girls to the MAGSR family for the holiday season this year.
Laika is a stunning lady. This intelligent girl enjoys the company of her people. Given clear direction and a confident handler, Laika is very responsive to the handler and quickly picks up new skills. Although Laika lived in a home prior to her arrival, we do not much about her previous life. As is true of any new dog, Laika will need time to adjust to her forever home. She will be most successful in a household that provides her with the structure, routine, and leadership that all GSDs crave. Laika is picking up new skills every day with our volunteers and seems to enjoy the opportunity to learn. Training will go a long way with this lovely lady. Not only will it help Laika develop into a good canine citizen, but it will also help her develop a strong and healthy bond with her forever family. Laika is patiently waiting for a forever family of her very own. Could that be with you?
