"My name is Daisy, and I'm a 1-year-old female German shepherd mix. Before HOPE rescued me, I lived in a small kennel because my former owner was pregnant and couldn't handle me. I'm now getting the care and attention I need. My humans have been working with me on obedience training. They say I know basic commands, and my manners have improved greatly since I've been here. I'm also crate-trained. I would do well with older children (say, 9 and up), and I love to play with other dogs. However, I like to chase cats, so I'll need a home without them. My humans say I'm a great girl who would make a wonderful companion. Still a puppy, I'll need a home where I can get lots of exercise. I'd make a great walking or jogging companion! Do we match? Please call 985-791-6517 or email nickibre@gmail.com."
