Dutchess is a stunning 2-year-old German Shepherd/Malinois mix with a gentle soul and a playful heart. She can be a little shy when you first meet her, but give her a little time (and maybe a treat or two), and she’ll soon be your loyal, tail-wagging shadow!

Once Dutchess warms up, she absolutely adores people and other dogs — especially if they’re up for some fun in the water. Splashing in a pool, chasing the hose, or just wading in a creek — water play is Dutchess’s absolute favorite pastime!

Dutchess would thrive in a home with patient, kind humans who can help build her confidence and give her the love (and water games!) she craves. She’s gentle, affectionate, and ready to bond deeply with her forever family.

If you’re looking for a sweet, playful companion who loves water adventures and quiet cuddles after, Dutchess is your perfect match. If you are interested in Dutchess, please fill out an application at www.tahoewarf.org and text 775-338-6631 or 775-846-3773.
