Christy von Clausen

My story

Christy von Clausen is a gorgeous, 14-month-old German Shepherd. A sweet and loving girl, she's searching for an active home. She begins her walks excitedly but listens to her handler. Christy enjoys meeting new canine friends along the way, is eager to learn and is responsive to her person. In her playgroups, she’s excited to play and gravitates toward higher energy pups for fun. She initiates play and makes sure to greet everyone, but cats are not her thing. Christy’s looking for a new start in life. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN Christy von Clausen YOU MUST FILL OUT AN ADOPTION APPLICATION ON OUR WEBSITE: www.sheprescue.org Application link: http://www.sheprescue.org/Application_to_Adopt_a_Dog%20Main.html Based on our experience, Westside's current thinking is to usually match first-time shepherd owners with a mix versus a purebred shepherd. Mixes are "softer" and somewhat more malleable. Exceptions can be made, however, for first-time adopters who show the confidence and leadership tendencies that purebreds will respect and respond to. Counselors have to use good judgment in assessing the attributes of the adopter, as well as of the dog. If you have doubts, get a second opinion from Robin or another experienced counselor.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Christy von Clausen, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
