We sent our beautiful girl Shea off to Pacos Den for some one to one time and she obviously got into the bag of Christmas accessories and had a great time dressing up before having a snooze on the couch.

**

Shea's story started when she was bought 3.5 years ago as a "pup". She has spent most of her life in the one place before being "given" to a local man who, after a very short time was up at our sanctuary (without the dog) asking if we could take her (and 2 bischons). On that day we had zero kennel space so instead asked that he wait and send on photos to our kennel manager, which he did.

Then a couple of weeks ago late at night, our kennel manager received a phone call from a member of the public who had nearly run over a German Shepherd dog on the Poolboy Bog road that was running in the rain and dark and we arranged to meet him at our kennels half an hour later. Shea's third owner (the man who arrived to our sanctuary) obviously couldn't wait for us to arrange a kennel and just handed her over to a man in Ballinasloe town, who for a few days , who became Sheas 4th owner. And we became her 5th. The difference now is that we will make sure that Shea gets a home where she will never be passed around like an old car ever again. It stops here !

Shea is now ready to find her forever home. She is a fab girl, super friendly and, over the last few weeks with us, has settled down and has become affectionate and engages and listens more. She has been on trips into town, walks well on her lead, is clean in her kennel and travels well.

While Shea shows no aggression to other dogs, we feel that a dog free home would be best for her as, yet again, she tries to process another change. We have been informed that she has been around children and has been kind and gentle with them. We have no history of Shea with cats.

Shea now deserves a home where she can finally call home. If you are a lover of Shepherds, have the time, space and heart to give to Shea please consider our beautiful girl.
