Posting on behalf of the owner. We all know how cruel the internet can be with rehoming hence why I’m posting on their behalf. If you are interested please dm Gunnar’s Place. If you are a potential fit I will put you in touch with the owner. I have met this dog and spent time with her she is lovely.
From the owner
This is Rosie, she's 4 years old, I got her when she was 4 months as a rescue from Tofino. German shepherd mix. Very high energy, super smart. Crate trained, ...needs to wear a muzzle if off leash. She is selectively social/ reactive with other dogs and has a bite history with dogs. Nervous of new people so I always ask that new people ignore her when the first meet her. She is good with other dogs and people once she knows them. Some issues with resource guarding at times. I've put a lot of time into this girl and I want her to find the best home. Big life changes means I haven't been able to meet her needs reliably any more. She is healthy, up to date on all vaccines. Could work on some house manners- she's been living with a lap dog for last few months and has picked up some small dog habits that can be a bit unbecoming in a big dog ( pawing for attention, jumping up at you when you come home)
She is very smart and easy to train so these habits will easily change with some consistency. She is used to leash runs with a bike. Her prey drive is intense but the training has curbed that in a big way. Recall is good. I think she would do best in a home with other big dogs that can help place her in the middle of the pack ( she can be very bossy if she thinks she's in charge ) or no other dogs and in a home with someone calm and dog savvy with time to give her the exercise and mental stimulation she needs. I am not in a rush, I am looking for someone who is willing to do some trial meetings and over nights to ensure it is a good fit. I can go on and on about this dog but if you are interested I'll save that info for in person.
