Westside German Shepherd Rescue of Los Angeles

Petra von Pettendorf is a delightful 9-10 month old sable German Shepherd. With her golden eyes and tweedy coat, this beauty could be walking on a Giorgio Armani runway – she’s got the right look of stylish minimalism -- except there’s nothing minimal about her exuberant personality! She does well on leash and acceptably meets the other canines on the runway, although she may need to be reminded she’s got a show to do. Her effusive nature needs a bit of tempering, as she may pull ahead a bit and even puppy nibble her new friends for attention. Petra is sometimes silly but always sweet. She is very happy in playgroups, not minding the other dogs at all and greeting them with a wagging tail (but she says no to cats). She likes the spotlight, adores attention from people and likes to be petted and rubbed all over. This glamour girl will definitely bring haute canine love and fun to someone’s lifestyle.
