Dutch Shepherd Dogs Available for Adoption

Meet Chelsea!

Chelsea is an 8-week-old Dutch Shepherd mix puppy with the sweetest personality and a playful spirit! This adorable little girl is full of curiosity and loves exploring the world around her—especially if it involves toys, cuddles, or playtime with her siblings.

Like any young puppy, Chelsea will need a family committed to typical puppy training, including housebreaking, basic commands, and continued socialization. She's at the perfect age to learn and grow into a well-mannered, loyal companion.

Chelsea has already received her first round of vaccinations and is off to a great start on her journey to a happy, healthy life.

She's one of a litter of 10 puppies, and while she loves romping around with her 9 brothers and sisters, she's more than ready to find a forever home of her own where she can get all the love and attention she deserves.

If you’re looking for a fun-loving, sweet puppy to add to your family, Chelsea might just be your perfect match!

• All of our animals are spayed/neutered and current on shots.
• We do not do same-day adoptions. You will be asked to return for at least one follow-up visit, then take the dog home for a trial period before officially adopting.
• You must be 21 years or older to adopt from STAF.

• We do request vet and personal references.
• We can facilitate adoptions within a 30-mile radius of our Cincinnati-based shelter
