About BREE

BREE was saved from a high kill shelter in Texas, where dogs generally have just 3 days to be saved before they are killed for space. BREE is spayed, core vaccines, rabies, de-wormed, heartworm tested negative and micro-chipped. She has an estimated date of birth of 25 October 2016 and weighs around 52.400 pounds. She has been listed as a German Shepherd Dog Mix. We have no way of knowing the exact breed, so it is up to individuals to decide what breed they think is most likely. Bree is a sweet girl, a smaller sized German Shepherd which makes her much easier to handle. She is smart, gentle and affectionate. She is always happy to see me when I go over to the kennels and sits on her bed, wagging her tail waiting for me to pet her. She takes treats gently and loves squirty cheese. She is very responsive and training would be a lot of fun and easy when done properly. It is important to note the German Shepherds need alpha humans, if they do not respect and listen to their humans, then they will step up to the alpha role, so this is something for any family to strongly consider. Bree is a high energy girl and will need lots of mental stimulation, and physical exercise, road trips and adventures to new places are good options. BREE does use the dog door to go out to do her business or enjoy the fresh air in her run. I do not know if she would let you know she needs to go out since she has 24/7 access to the outside, but she is extremely smart and do not think it would take long to learn. Bree is great with other dogs and is happy to run around chasing and wrestling. She has not shown any sign of aggression at all. We do not have cats or livestock at the rescue so cannot comment on how she would be near or around them. She needs an active family, I have not seen her with children, but her demeanor and personality I have no doubt that she would be great with them and a lot of fun too. As with all rescue's she needs guidance and training and we recommend families go through at least the basics of training with her themselves so that boundaries, personalities and body language can be learned from each other. �'��We do not recommend dog parks for several weeks, if not months, it is so very important for families and dogs to form a strong bond and get to know each other before exposing them to the potential dangers of dog parks. Although all GaDaH dogs are very well socialized with other dogs, lots of other dogs have not had the benefit of this socialization and do not always know how to play and act with other dogs. You also do not know the control the other families have over their dogs and you should always have a good recall for your adopted dog before going to dog parks. BREE is available for adoption for an adoption fee of $550. Canadian adopters need to know that customs charge 15% taxes when entering into Canada. This fee is not negotiable and is used to cover the rescue costs of pulling, vetting, health certificate, transport from Texas to Maine, monthly preventatives, supplements, food and anything else that is needed. If you feel that you have the heart and home to give this precious soul a wonderful life, please go to our website, under the APPLICATION tab, complete, then submit the APPLICATION. Our process takes around 2-4 days, and ensuring your references are aware that we will be calling, could speed up the process.
