Shasta - Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Bothell, Washington

Animal Information: Shasta and her four presumed littermates were trapped at around three months of age on a property with many neglected dogs; upon intake these pups were feral but over the last month she's been making a lot of progress and is now exhibiting social behaviors. Her littermates were all adopted and she was at risk due to space, so she'll be joining the rescue. She's now an estimated four months old, probably around 20 lbs and -- considering her history -- quite the resilient pup! We can't wait to see her continue to progress in foster care. Shasta would likely benefit from another dog in her foster home, to help her learn the ropes of dogging.
