Essen

My story

Hello! My name is Essen!I`ve been waiting for my family to come along since February 2025. Can you believe I`ve been in the care of GHS for over 365 days?! Me neither! I`m a big sweetheart and always start my day with snuggles in bed with foster mom. I`m a very friendly girl and enjoy meeting new humans. I do prefer humans over dogs though, and would be a great family dog for a home with older kids. I am so smart and have learned so many new skills because of my awesome foster mom. I`ve also recently discovered that I am an excellent cottage buddy and love to swim!MY IDEAL HOME INVOLVES…CHILDREN: Yes, older and mature children!OTHER DOGS: Other dogs cause me stress, so I`m looking to be the only dog.CATS: Since I like to chase little critters, I shouldn`t live with kitties.FIRST-TIME DOG OWNERS: I would do best in a home that has dog experience.FENCED-IN YARD: Highly recommended.HOUSING ENVIRONMENT: Homes with yard preferred.SOMEONE HOME MOST OF THE DAY: I do well home alone!SOME OTHER THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ME…ACTIVITY LEVEL: Medium.HOUSE-TRAINED: Yes!A special thank you to my friends at Royal Canin: they`re generously providing my new adopters with one month of my food for free!If you think I could be a good match for your home, click the “Adopt Me” button to apply!
