About

Farrah is a smart and playful 4 year old GSD. She loves playing fetch, chasing sticks, and digging snow balls. She is still trying to master her leash manners when she gets excited on a walk and starts to pull. She's a quick learner and practice makes perfect. Farrah knows her name and comes when called, she also rocks at her basic commands and is eager to please. She is crate trained and a talker when she needs to go out or wants to play. She is really good with kids, but needs to be reminded to step back when roughhousing starts between kids because she will try to intervene. She is an excellent companion, sweet and loving and will gladly turn on her back for a belly rub. She will be by your side whether it's in the kitchen, doing chores outside or rocking a baby to sleep. She will need mental & physical exercise. MUST KNOW: While most GSDs will end up with hip/joint challenges, Farah was purposely confined to a very small crate 18hrs a day for at least 9 months before we were able to save her. The confinement may have exacerbated hip/joint issues. While our vet believes she will be fine with crate rest, pain meds, anti inflammatory and joint supplements, the chances of Farah needing stifle stabilization surgery is greater than average. We will happily cover her potentially needed stifle stabilization if done at Helping Hands Veterinary Surgery and Dentistry Hospital in Richmond Virginia. The recovery is a minimum of 6 weeks if an adopter decides to go through with it.
