FionaAdopted January 22, 2005 Fiona was a 2-3 yr old black/tan, spayed, female German Shepherd Dog. She was used as a puppy mill breeding bitch for many years. Fiona was happy to now be spayed! Her tortured years are over. Fiona was untethered at a very rural farm and never ran away, showing the home-sense that we appreciate so much from German Shepherds. Her farm was kitty free, which was explained the first time she met our cats. She had a very high prey drive, and was a dedicated cat attacker. She needed a small animal free home. She was very particular about her canine company. After years of sharing, she was friends with a select few, but liked her space as a single dog. Fiona was very much a cuddly snuggle pup to humans. She loved attention and hopped around like a carefree puppy with a few snuggles from a beloved human.

A thank you goes out to Fiona's sponsor: Cheryl Smith in memory of Rommel Would you like to be a sponsor?
