Chelsea is a beautiful female German Shepherd estimated around 1.5 years of age. Chelsea was a stray therefore we do not know her history or background prior to landing in a rural Kentucky shelter. 

Chelsea is a strong, independent girl with clear working line influences. Chelsea is good with people but she is not a particularly social girl outside of "her" people. She is a high energy girl who is always looking for something to get into and is too smart for her own good. Chelsea is on the hot mess express in many ways and is looking for a home that can channel the energy and brains of a strong-willing working dog into appropriate outlets. Chelsea would thrive in advanced obedience and any number of dog sports. She is the sort that needs a job and clear guidance to ensure she doesn't try to rewire the house.

Chelsea is a bit too pushy for most other dogs and is having to learn her social manners. She tends to be the fun police in the yard and wants to control what everyone is doing which does not win her any friends. Chelsea has yet to figure this out and is going to need ongoing guidance as she continues to learn how to be a good canine citizen. Chelsea is NOT good with small dogs or cats. 

Chelsea is a smart, active girl looking for a family that will give her the love and socialization she needs to thrive. If you're the home for her email us at Tierhavenrescue@gmail.com for an adoption application or visit Tierhaven.rescuegroups.org for FAQs
