MAPLE is a two-year-old female German shepherd. Her foster family really enjoys having her, but it’s time for her to find her forever home. They say Maple is a smart, gentle giant, and a dream around the house. She is patient and affectionate and loves pets, cuddles, children and playing with other dogs. Maple has excellent leash skills and knows how to heel beside her walker without pulling. She does react quite assertively toward other dogs who come to the fence and would benefit from meeting other dogs in a training environment. She is also fully house trained and knows many commands like how to sit and lie down. She is independent when left at home. Maple is a loyal and loving girl and will make a family very complete. Outgoing and friendly, she is very tolerant and trusting when it’s time for her hip exercises. She would do well in a home with children, but we do not know how she is with cats.
