Arrival Story:
Kiera, my last shepherd, had died and I had filled out an application with the Northern Utah GSD Rescue. At the time, they didn't have any puppies. I had already found Kendra at animal rescue in Oklahoma. 9 months after acquiring Kendra, the shepherd rescue contacted me to see if I was still interested in adopting. When I told them I had already found a dog, they asked me if I would be willing to foster a dog. I agreed. She suggested 5 different dogs that she thought might be a good fit. I picked Chamonix. She was a year old (about a month younger than Kendra). She needed love and was very eager to learn. There were some concerns about her ability to get along with other females. I brought her into my home. After one alpha incident with her towards Kendra, she promptly learned that was not acceptable behavior. 6 weeks after I started fostering her, a man called and expressed interest in adopting her. At that point there was no way I could give her up.

Bio:
Chamonix and Kendra are best buddies and enjoy chasing each other. Chamonix is not quite as fast as Kendra is and squeals like a pig when she can't catch her. Chamonix is currently being trained for search and rescue and will also test this summer. ***Rest in peace Chamonix. Chamonix went to the Rainbow Bridge after a short, but hard fight with lymphosarcoma.
