Looking for a best friend with a built-in smile? Stormie might just be the pup for you! At only 10 months old, this female German Shepherd has a heart full of love and a mind that picks up tricks in minutes—especially if treats or playtime are involved.
Stormie came to Heidi’s Legacy Rescue underweight, but thanks to her determination (and love of treats), she’s thriving in foster care. She’s a “pocket” GSD, likely topping out around 50 lbs, making her the perfect shepherd-size for anyone who loves the breed but prefers a medium-sized companion.
Despite being a puppy, Stormie is refreshingly easygoing: she sleeps through the night, loves her crate, and is content with moderate exercise and mental stimulation. She can even entertain herself when needed, making her a flexible addition to a family ready to give her the structure and love she deserves.
