ADOPTED ON 10-20-23 Our German shepherd rescue may have gone a little astray recently but one look at our German shepherd “mix” Zena and anyone can see why we had to save her. Aside from being drop dead gorgeous, this girl is a total sweetheart. Ms. Zena came to us scared, confused, malnourished and unloved but she opened up to us and we were able to see that very special little girl living in that tiny body. This young lady is now quite healthy, very social, laid back, good with other dogs and thrives on human attention. Zena is 15 -18 months old, medium long black coat, will probably be over 50 pounds, tremendously attentive and just darned cute!

Our girl performed very well in our socialization and training programs completing all phases with excellence. From this program we were able to discern that Zena had a strong desire to bond, thrive in all aspects of training, a strong but in control protective instinct and an absolute joy for life. This little lady would thrive in almost any household that has a loving environment and plenty of time for her. We believe that Zena is probably a German shepherd, Border collie mix which if we are correct is a tremendous blend of intelligence, agility, strength and work ethic. The one phrase that best describes MS Zena “bigger than life love sponge”. This girl is the ultimate companion dog!!!!

 

 

PLEASE TAKE A MINUTE TO CHECK OUT THE SECTION BELOW

RDVG wants to provide you with as much information as we can because some of our mix breeds you might not be familiar with. The below section on “About the Breed” offers information on some of the Breed Characteristics, Children & Pets, Behavior and Personality, Temperament and more.

It is important to point out that in addition to the breed, there is an enormous variety in the way a dog acts and reacts to the world around him. In the end, your dog’s preferences and personality are as individual as you are–and if you can accept that– then you’re bound to enjoy each other.

Children & Pets

Animal Behavior Guidelines

Many children, especially very young ones, do not realize that pets are living animals and not toys. Failing to teach a child how to handle pets properly can result in suffering on the part of the pet and, in some cases, injury to the child. Taking introductions slowly will allow you to introduce family dogs and your children safely

Puppy Behavior, Growth & Development

Each stage of Puppy Growth and development is fascinating; by the time it reaches its first birthday a puppy is considered a mature, adult dog. Puppy Growth rate is fast compared to humans, just compare a puppy of 8 weeks to a baby of the same age.

One of the most common questions asked about a puppy’s growth and development rate refers to the eventual size of the puppy. How big will the puppy grow? How can you determine the adult size of a puppy? A young puppy is tiny and cute – everyone loves puppies! But will the puppy be suited to your environment? How much exercise will be required for a full grown dog? Will the puppy be a suitable pet for children? The breed of the puppy will determine the answers to these questions. A general response to the size and growth rate of a puppy and the adult size of a puppy is therefore not possible – it needs to be specific to the puppy’s breed.
