Bambi is seeking: a vibrant social life and an exercise buddy.

Bambi is a two-year-old German shepherd mix who loves to be the centre of attention! She makes friends with people everywhere she goes, but prefers slow introductions to other dogs. She doesn’t appreciate seeing unfamiliar dogs on leash and is looking for a home where she’s not likely to run into them.

Bambi is a super sweet girl who is ready to spend all her time with her new family. Could it be you?
