Featured Pet

Meet Jasmine, a beautiful 4-year-old Dutch Shepherd mix. Dutch Shepherds are known for their lively, athletic, and intelligent nature. Originally bred to work as herding dogs, they were also used to watch over children and alert farmers to strangers on the property. Jasmine embodies these traits, showing a natural curiosity and alertness to her surroundings. While she may be a bit shy when meeting new people, she quickly warms up.

Like many Dutch Shepherds, Jasmine is loyal and forms strong bonds with those she trusts. She has shown this affectionate side, happily greeting familiar faces and leaning in for affection—even trying to crawl into our laps. Her stunning brindle coat, a rare black-striped pattern on red fur, is a unique trait of the breed made special by the recessive brindle gene, which not all breeds carry.

Jasmine is full of energy and would thrive with an active owner who can provide her with plenty of adventures and walking time. She would also do best as the only dog in the home, allowing her to soak up all the love and attention she deserves.
