Zarah - German Shepherd Dog and Border Collie Dog for Adoption in Pleasant Grove, California

NOTE: GSRSV HAS NOT MET ZARAH. WE ARE LISTING HER ON THIS WEBSITE ALONG WITH OUR OWN DOGS TO GIVE HER MORE ADOPTION EXPOSURE. PLEASE SEE END OF THIS PROFILE FOR CONTACT INFO.

URGENT! ZARAH IS SCHEDULED TO BE SURRENDERED TO THE STOCKTON ANIMAL SHELTER ON 7-29-26.

"Zarah" is an approx 45-lb, soon-to-be-spayed female GSD mix who is sweet, loving and smart. Zarah is healthy, microchipped, and up-to-date on core vaccinations. She will be spayed on July 29, after which she will be surrendered to the Stockton animal shelter.

Zarah loves people, and is great w/ the 12-yo child shes presently living with. She might be a bit too energetic for toddlers.

Zarah lives with both a male GSD and a female Golden Doodle. She is fine with the male dog, but does not get along w/ the female dog. Its unknown how she is with small dogs.

Zarah chases cats, so a home without cats is a must.

Zarah is housetrained but her person (Melanie) kept her in a crate when she was gone because of
the conflict between Zarah and her other female dog. She also kept Zarah in a crate at night.

Zarah is presently staying with a professional trainer where shes receiving formal obedience training. She walks fairly well on leash and is not too reactive towards other dogs she sees when on walks.

Zarah loves to ride in a car and is a polite passenger. She loves squeaky toys and playing with "mind
toys."

Zarah is a true adventure-loving dog, and is game for activities like paddleboarding. (See elsewhere on this page for a video of Zarah on a paddleboard.)

Melanie adopted Zarah from a person on NextDoor who could no longer keep her due to conflicts between Zarah and her other female dog. Now, Melanie is facing the same situation and can no longer keep her. Though Zarah is now at the home of a professional trainer, Melanie can not afford to keep her there beyond July 29, when she has an appointment to surrender her to the Stockton animal shelter (the same day she is getting spayed).

Zarah is located in Stockton. There is no adoption fee for her, but she wont be ready to be adopted until after she is spayed on July 29.
