About Smidget

Smidget is an adorable, attentive, curious, and spunky young dog with a sweet personality. Having overcome a tough start in a hoarding situation, she is now discovering the world and blossoming into a wonderful companion. She loves to play often and enthusiastically with other dogs, and while initially cautious with humans, she learns to trust with patience and gentle encouragement, eventually enjoying snuggles. Smidget is super smart, a quick learner, and already knows commands like "touch" and "sit." Despite her playful nature, she also knows how to chill and occupy herself with toys.

As a German Shepherd Dog and Poodle mix, Smidget likely inherits intelligence, loyalty, and a playful spirit. German Shepherds are known for their courage and trainability, while Poodles contribute their keen intellect and often a more sensitive nature. This combination results in a dog that is eager to learn and form strong bonds, though she may initially be reserved. Her coat, being a mix, will likely require moderate grooming to prevent matting and manage shedding, and she will benefit from consistent mental stimulation and physical activity.

Smidget is looking for a mellow home with another playful, confident dog to help her feel secure and continue building her confidence. She requires a patient and understanding adopter who can provide a stable environment and show her that the world is not so scary. A securely fenced yard is essential for her safety and enjoyment. Homes with young children or apartments are not being considered at this time, as she thrives in a calm setting where she can continue to grow and shine.
