6/20/24: Artemis is a 45 lbs GSD mix.  She was born in April 2023 and surrendered to VGSR with her 3 siblings when they were only a few weeks old.  "Artie" is spayed, UTD on shots, on preventives, and crate trained.

Artie is very loyal and affectionate, but also shy and people-reactive.  This means she will need a very patient adopter who will earn her trust with patience and forgiveness.  This will be necessary because Artie currently has a very well defined comfort zone and she will need time to adapt to a new situation.

She currently lives with two other GSDs and plays with both, but it takes a while for her to feel comfortable with another dog.  Artie is being fostered in Arlington (22204) and typically participates in the Potomac Yard adoption events in Alexandria.

Because of her insecurity issues and the fact that she has already been returned once, Artie will need a committed adopter who will earn her trust and work on building her confidence.
