Hello German shepherd lovers ❤️,
We are looking forward to rehoming or adopting Nicki our 6year old pure bred German Shepherd girl.We had her rescued about 3 years ago , as her last hope before a family member put her down . Nicki lived her life ignored in a cage too small for her until she got to the age of 3 (unfortunately we did not know her family had a dog, though we lived just a few hours away from each other).
Nicki had little to no interaction or socialization, so she was nothing but wild anxious energy when released at the time.
Due to the fact that our family is a “private rescue” which do help and assist other families needing a dog as their forever home companion ,one of the family members reached out to us when they were about putting Nicki down (2days before thankfully 🙏🏼) and we had her rescued and brought home. Since then, the girl has had a lot on her plate and so much love under her sleeves to offer.
Nicki has done nothing but succeed with attention, freedom and love. She has some aggression issues, and being locked up in a cage for hours is the greatest trigger.
We are rehoming her because she has been finally tested fit to live with a family as a family member and it’s kind of what we do, to rescue stray dogs and find them the best forever homes once they can be rehomed. We know as a dog lover,finding her a home might take some time but it’s worth the hassle.
We also believe her past “aggression issues” come from not only her instinctual guardian breed but fear of new stimuli. Before we rescued her,she was taught if things got too hectic, and she (growled/roared)her old family would be scared and put her back the cage (a safe place with a treat).
Over the last 3years , we’ve introduced her to a lot so we really don’t have the growling/roaring issues anymore (she’s very vocal but I’ve been told that’s a normal “German Shepherd”thing). Now will she bite? No ,but unless a thief or unpleasant stranger comes home.
Her biggest trigger is any sort of barrier:
Example: dog aggressive at a cage,not dog aggressive when leashed/free and no fence (also loves doggy daycare).
Example: if you walk into the house unexpected or sneaky she will bite you unless you really know her , but I can have strangers inside already and then let her out of a room and all she will want is everyone’s love.
However, with that being said, we think she would be good in a home with younger kids (loud squealers or highly rambunctious). He is good with kids that know dog respect, but won’t ever be good with a lot of different people coming in and out of the house all the time that aren’t his people.
Kindly leave us a message or comment if you are interested and need more information in regards of adopting or rehoming Nicki we would be more than happy to answer any and all questions!
We love her ,and she’s a good dog that needs a home with more individualized attention for her (plus we can bring in another dog when you take her home 💕)!
We are located at Texas and do offer transportation alongside shipping.
