Reflection - Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Merrillville, Indiana

Reflection, about 10 months old, is a very sweet, kind and clumsy pup. She came to us almost 2 months ago, loved the outside but never knew what a house was for, a home. For the first several days she had to be coaxed inside because of this. Shy to be touched as she must have never been pet. Once inside she was great in her crate. She has been fed in there and gets a treat each time she does to keep it positive. She sits right away for a treat or snack.

She does not live with kids with her foster mom but does fine when around them. She is fostered with 3 other dogs which she likes to torment the little dog as she is still a puppy but not in a mean way, and loves running and play/wrestling with the 2 bigger boys. There are also 3 cats and 2 foster kitties she lives with, occasionally she will bark at them or try to chase them but then you will find her playing or even cleaning one. She will steal a shoe but has never chewed it up.

Reflection came to us Ehrlichia positive and has since been treated with a full course of antibiotics for it.
