Babe

My story

Beautiful and at times bashful, Babe is a 3- to 5-year-old female German Shepherd seeking a forever home. Babe was rescued from an overburdened animal control facility in Kentucky. She's a thin 65 pounds but is gaining weight in her foster home and heading towards an ideal weight of about 75 pounds. Babe is not only a beautiful face but also an excellent ambassador for her breed, being even-tempered, intelligent, loyal, and watchful. She can be a little timid when meeting new people, but warms up readily with some kind words and gentle pets. You'd be hard-pressed to find a more faithful and loyal companion than Babe. Like most Shepherds, she's sensitive, highly intuitive, affectionate, eager to please, and bonds closely with her people! She is very well-behaved in the house, crate-trained, and housebroken. German Shepherds are active and intelligent dogs that thrive with guardians who can provide ample mental and physical stimulation to channel their energy into something productive. Babe will be an excellent companion for an active household and a Shepherd lover's dream dog! Babe is being fostered in Chicago and can be seen by appointment only after an adoption application has been completed and approved. Her adoption donation to the rescue is $375. This fee helps to cover her spay, initial vaccines, microchip, and heartworm testing. Unfortunately, we cannot place holds on our dogs for any reason. Please do not submit an adoption application unless you are ready to meet and welcome a dog into your home within three days of applying. For more information or to receive an application, email palsplace1@hotmail.com or visit palsplacerescue.org Adoption applications and correspondence from the rescue may end up in your spam or junk folder.
