Misty von Mermelstein is an adorable 10 month old long coated German Shepherd. We guess that she is around 45 pounds and most likely won't get too much bigger, maybe up to 55 pounds. She is a little overwhelmed right now, having just arrived at our kennel. She is from the Lancaster Shelter, an area known for their dog breeders. We seem to get more long coated shepherds from there than from any other shelter. She is very mild and gentle and just wants to crawl in your lap and snuggle. Remember the long haired shepherds won't shed all over your floor because the fur stays on them until groomed. With regular grooming every few months, your life of cleaning up dog fur should be over. She is such a gem, we just can't wait to see her go off to her new home with an adoring family.
