White German Shepherd and Cattle Dog Dogs Available for Adoption in New Orleans, Louisiana

Meet Patches - the kind of dog people spend years hoping to find.

This beautiful 2-year-old German Shepherd/Cattle Dog mix is around 45 lbs and truly an easy, go-with-the-flow kind of dog. Gentle, calm, affectionate, and endlessly patient, Patches fits beautifully into just about any home - whether you're a first-time dog owner, a family with kids, or someone simply looking for a loyal companion.

After lovingly raising her puppies, this sweet mama is finally ready for a forever home of her own. All Patches really wants is a soft couch, a safe yard to relax in, and people to love.

She is completely potty trained, free roams beautifully without destruction, and has absolutely no separation anxiety. She doesn't need to be crated, rarely makes a peep, and has zero resource guarding around food. Patches loves spending time outside and is still learning what walks are all about, but she's gentle, willing, and already proving to be easy to handle.

Patches is friendly with men, women, kids, cats, and other dogs. She greets everyone with tail wags and a sweet smile, and her calm demeanor makes her an absolute dream to live with.

She is up to date on vaccines and is scheduled to be spayed soon now that she has finished nursing her puppies.

Patches truly is one of those rare dogs who asks for very little but gives so much love in return.
