Marla von Minna is a silky, sable-coated, 4-month old German Shepherd/Malinois mix who barks excitedly when she sees her reflection in the mirror.  Her playful energy and puppy mischievousness are balanced by her sweet personality and desire to cuddle with you.  Marla is equally happy to romp about with her toy in her mouth or lie quietly while gnawing on a rawhide bone.  On walks her tail wags a welcome to both humans and dogs, but she turns on her “shepherd alert system” if she senses something out of the ordinary.  She is in the process of being house-trained and is learning her basic commands, and she is looking forward to adding joy and happiness to the special family who adopts her.
