Hanna - Shepherd and Labrador Retriever Dog for Adoption in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania

**Meet Hanna!**

Hanna is the sweet sister of Raven, Murphy, and Ringo, who have all found their forever homes! We’ve taken a little extra time getting to know Hanna because she’s a bit different from her siblings—and we want to make sure we find the *perfect* home for her.

At about 4 1/2 months old, Hanna is a Shepherd/Lab mix who we expect to grow into a **big girl!**

Hanna absolutely **LOVES people** and happily greets strangers with a wagging tail! She’s a total people pup. She’s also a wonderfully **independent girl who entertains herself well**, so she doesn’t need to be the center of attention every minute of the day!

When it comes to other dogs, Hanna prefers calm, respectful friends who don’t get all up in her business. We suspect her scarred nose may be from a bad experience with another dog, so she can be cautious around rambunctious dogs.

The good news? Hanna is currently attending doggie daycare 3 days a week and working with a trainer on socialization—and she’s doing **GREAT!** We’d love for her new family to continue this so she can keep building positive experiences with other dogs.

She’s doing great with house training, is crate trained (although she’d like to file a formal complaint about the crate ), and is becoming quite the car-riding pro!

We’re looking for a **dog-savvy family**, preferably one familiar with Shepherds. Kids **8+** would be best. She may not be the dog for everyone, but for the right family, Hanna is going to be one very special girl.

Now we just need to find her *people!*

Hanna is spayed, microchipped, current on rabies, distemper, bordatella and lepto vaccines, current on preventative, and had a fecal check. Her adoption fee is $450.

If you are interested in Hanna, please submit an application on our website at https://worthytails.rescuegroups.org. For any questions, please send an email to jessie.wilson@comcast.net

Thank you for your interest in a rescue pup!
