Happy is an unusal cross of Welsh Corgi and German Shepard.  She's got the body of Shepard and the cute short legs of a Corgi.  Happy was adopted from us in 2005.  Due to the owners ongoing medical issues, Happy has come back to us to find a new home. 

Happy is a fun, playful dog that wants attention and is also great with children.  Since her owner's illness, Happy has not gotten proper walks or love and is starving for someone to care for her.  Poor Happy is also overweight and needs exercise. 

Volunteer Update:  I love to walk Happy.  She will walk right beside you and if she veers off, I just give a little tug and she's right by my side again.  Such a gentle sweet girl, she needs a new home.

Happy qualifies for our senior for senior program, if adopted by a senior (55+) her adoption fee is $100.

***According to dogbreedinfo.com, in April 1899, Capt. Max von Stephanitz registered a dog named Horan as the first Deutsche Schäferhunde, which means German Shepherd Dog in English. Known for their tremendous loyalty and courage, they are calmly confident, but not hostile. This breed needs his people and should not be left isolated for long periods of time. They only bark when it is necessary. Serious and almost human in his intelligence, they have a high learning ability. The breed is so intelligent and learns so readily that it has been used as a sheepdog, guard dog, in police work, as a guide for the blind, in search and rescue service, and in the military. The German Shepherd also excels in many other dog activities including schutzhund, tracking, obedience, agility, flyball, and ring sport. His fine nose can sniff out drugs and intruders, and can alert handlers to the presence of underground mines in time to avoid detonation, or gas leaks in a pipes buried 15 feet underground. A quick daily brushing is best unless hair in the house is not a problem. They should be bathed rarely, only once or twice a year to avoid skin oil depletion. Shepherds have a life expectancy around 13 years.
