About Reese (Berger allemand) in Seattle

Reese is waiting for you at Dog Gone Seattle Rescue in Seattle, WA 98125. Animal Profile: Reese is a stunning 1.5-year-old, 72-lb all-black German Shepherd who’s ready for a fresh start with Dog Gone Seattle. She had been in the care of Tacoma Humane Society since August, but the shelter environment was rough on this sensitive girl. She officially became part of the Dog Gone Seattle Crew in December 2025.Reese is very intelligent and will thrive with an experienced owner, ideally someone familiar with German Shepherds or Malinois-type breeds. She’s not a fit for small children and can get overwhelmed in busy environments, so home with structure will help her feel secure. Foster Update: Reese is thriving in training. This beautiful shepherd girl is smart, engaging, and eager to please. She is crate trained, house trained, enjoys her treadmill time, and is always ready for a game of fetch or tug. Her leash manners have improved quickly, and she is doing very well with her commands. Reese would do best in a shepherd-savvy home. Her medium energy level makes her a great match for someone interested in fun activities like nose work or agility. She has not been assessed with children, but she is friendly with people and could live with a dog-savvy cat. We are not considering apartment homes for Reese. Additional Foster Update: Reese is doing great! We have started doing some tracking and scent work with her. She is a natural. Clearly her previous owners invested in her or she is just amazing and a fast learner. She is doing well with the cats. We are kind of in the “annoying little sister” phase. She will sometimes run up to the cats and then just move on like just kidding, etc, or will sniff for a long time and I have to tell her let’s go. I do keep her ecollar on because she will chase the cats if she gets the chance but will respond to an ecollar correction. She is great with our dog Rayleigh and coexists beautifully with out other dog Blair. She prefers to work ov
