About Gretel

One and a half-year old Gretel's journey hasn't been easy. She and another Doberman were found dumped in Otero County and picked up as strays. It was obvious she had little to no human contact, but learned how to trust in the warmth of her loving foster home. After six months in foster care, Gretel is feeling more comfortable and gaining self-confidence. She likes older kids, is house broken and crate trained. She walks well on the leash and knows basic obedience. She responds to no, go potty and go poop. She learns very quickly and is good at learning from repeated behaviors. She is highly motivated by treats and frozen Kongs! Gretel is a very wiggly dog and uses her whole body to communicate and play. She is wary of cats and barks at them but is showing improvement. She loves sunbathing and a cozy spot of her own and likes to go to bed early! She is suspicious of strangers but warms up after a few minutes. Gretel needs patience and understanding in her new home and the ability to adjust at her own pace. She prefers a calm household with structure and routine. Lastly, someone who will celebrate her small victories-every step forward is a big deal for this girl! A $300 adoption fee applies.
