German Shepard with a high IQ.
Blu is a purebred, about to be 6-year-old, spayed and chipped German Shepard. She was obtained from a breeder in Michigan. She is an extremely loyal and protective of her family. She loves to play and run around. A highly intelligent and quick learning dog. We live in a new smaller subdivision now and are doing her a disservice by keeping her in a smaller yard. She does better in areas that have a little more space for her to play. She loves to run with endless energy and an extremely athletic dog. We also have another new dog and does not agree nor do well with other dogs. We are having a hard time making the decision, but it is the best for all parties involved. You will be blown away by this dog's intelligence!! She knows what you are going to do, even before you do it. It's amazing to watch. You will always have a companion. Thank you for your assistance in adopting our Blu Bear. :)
