Winchester- Puppy - German Shepherd Dog Dog for Adoption in Akron, Ohio

Sweet Winnie is a little over 3 months old and is the last of her litter still searching for her forever home! This adorable girl is ready to find a family to call her own. Winnie has been diagnosed with a grade 2 out of 6 heart murmur. She has already had an echocardiogram (heart ultrasound), and thankfully, no serious underlying concerns were identified that could explain the murmur. Her veterinarian recommends repeating the echocardiogram when she reaches 6 months of age to monitor her heart as she grows. The rescue will cover the cost of this follow-up echo, provided it is completed at our designated local clinic. There is a possibility that Winnie may outgrow her murmur as she matures, but it is important that her future family understands the need for continued monitoring and keeps their veterinarian informed. Winnie is your typical happy, playful puppy who loves spending time with other dogs! She has also been introduced to cats. While she may occasionally chase them out of curiosity and excitement, she can be redirected and will leave them alone. We are currently working on housebreaking and crate training. Like any young puppy, Winnie is still learning, so her future family will need to continue providing patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. Winnie is scheduled to be spayed, and her spay must be completed before her adoption can be finalized.

Winnie deserves a loving family who will look beyond her little heart murmur and see the wonderful puppy she is! With proper monitoring, lots of love, and a family willing to continue her training, this sweet girl has so much love to give

This animal is current on all age appropriate vaccines, dewormed, microchipped, and spayed/neutered or will go home with an already scheduled appointment. They have also been given flea prevention. Adoption fee is $350.00. If you are interested in adopting this pet please fill out an application.
