Oh, hello you! Rachel here.

Shepherd brains over here: I learn fast, notice everything, and would love a person with a plan.

Word is I'm a championship snuggler. I don't like to brag, but the notes don't lie.

I'm still young and full of beans, with a whole lot of love (and the occasional zoomie) saved up for the right person.

I'm on the bigger side — which, if you ask me, is just more of me to hug.

I'm a Burbank local, just waiting on the right person.

Here's the thing — I can't tell if we'd truly click until I know a little about you. Sign in (it's free) and I'll size up your place, say hello to any dogs you've got — or be your very first — and give you my honest read on whether we'd be a match.

Who knows — by Thanksgiving I might be napping on somebody's couch. I'd love it to be near you, one way or another.

Either way, thank you for seeing me today. That part mattered more than you know. — Rachel

About Rachel

Rachel is a small German Shepherd who is very nervous in the shelter. The noise and activity is pretty unsettling to her, so she’s very cautious when meeting new people. After some time, and a lot of compliments, she eventually let me show her some affection with some gentle pats. Her fur is so soft and lovely! She’s quite small for her breed, which might be perfect for a fan of the type who may not have the space for the more average size. She’s absolutely stunning but needs a lot of patience and structure to feel confident- you must fight the desire to snuggle her immediately. It’s tough, she looks very snuggle-able. Regular exercise, a consistent structured routine, and keeping her environment small at first, until trust is built, is the best path for success in her new home. Once the trust is built this girl will prove to be an incredibly loving and loyal friend- I’d wager her Velcro tendency may even emerge. If you think you’re the kind of person who can step up to fulfill her needs in return for getting a beautiful best friend- head into #burbankanimalshelter to meet her for yourself.
