Critter Details

Leslie is a gorgeous two-year-old German Shepherd mix who has been awaiting her forever home for far too long! Leslie is very nervous while meeting new people and encountering new things. Unfortunately, her trepidation sometimes means she will bark at people she doesnâ&#194&#128&#194&#153t know, which in turn makes people shy away from her. Thankfully, the trainers at Pasadena Humane have been working with her to build her confidence, and theyâ&#194&#128&#194&#153ve seen her start to show off her true personality much more clearly. Leslie is a VERY smart and easy-to-train dog. She knows quite a few training cues like â&#194&#128&#194&#156sitâ&#194&#128&#194&#157, â&#194&#128&#194&#156downâ&#194&#128&#194&#157 and â&#194&#128&#194&#156shakeâ&#194&#128&#194&#157. She will even â&#194&#128&#194&#156play deadâ&#194&#128&#194&#157 and pretty much anything else you try to teach her. With a smart dog like Leslie, the sky is the limit! Leslie also bonds very quickly with everyone who can see through the gruff exterior that she puts up. Once youâ&#194&#128&#194&#153re in her inner circle, all she wants is to be attached to you at the hip. She will constantly check in on you as you take her out for a walk or work on training with her. As her confidence grows, her inquisitive and fun nature comes out. She will find a plush toy to relax with, or sheâ&#194&#128&#194&#153ll sniff out the treat you thought she missed. When she relaxes on her dog bed, she is as happy as can be. With the right family, this nervous girl will surely blossom into the amazing dog we all know she can be! Come spend some time with Leslie and see this diamond in the rough!
