shenzi

Shenzi is a 9-month-old Belgian Malinois mix with a heart as big as her ears! This sweet girl may be a little shy when meeting new people, but once you've earned her trust, she transforms into the ultimate love bug who wants nothing more than to be by your side.True to her breed mix, Shenzi is incredibly smart and eager to learn. She already knows how to sit and shake, and she's ready to continue building her skills with a family that enjoys training and helping their dog reach their full potential. She thrives with positive reinforcement and would love an owner who can keep both her mind and body active.Shenzi absolutely adores other dogs! Whether she's running full speed around the yard, wrestling with her canine friends, or making new playmates, she's happiest with a dog buddy to share her adventures. One thing to know is that Shenzi is very reactive to cats, so she is looking for a cat-free home.Because she's a bit timid by nature, Shenzi would do best in a quieter home with older teenagers or adults. Loud, busy environments aren't her style, and she'll flourish with a patient family that allows her to settle in at her own pace.As an active young dog, Shenzi will need a securely fenced yard where she can safely stretch her legs and burn off her energy. One of her favorite games is fetch, and she'll happily chase a ball over and over before coming back inside for cuddles.If you're looking for a loyal, intelligent companion who will reward your patience with endless affection, Shenzi could be the perfect addition to your family. Give this sweet girl the chance she deserves, and she'll be your best friend for life.If you are interested in adopting me or another homeless pet at Macomb County Animal Control, walk-in adoption hours are Monday-Friday from 10am-4pm.My adoption fee is $100
