Jordie is a very sweet German Shepard mix who is approximately 2.5 years old. Jordie loves her toys, enjoys walks, likes to ride in vehicles, and is crate and kennel trained. She is initially skittish with new humans but warms up pretty quickly. She loves to be in the company of her foster parents and when it is time for her to go back to her kennel she rolls over on her back and shows her belly in hopes that her cuteness will make them stay. She gets along with some dogs but she prefers to be the dominant dog in the house. Jordie and her foster's male German Shepard don't get along very well. It would probably be best for Jordie to go to a home where she can be the only dog or be with a dog that is very low keyed. She is very curious about cats but has not been around them much.
Jordie was found roaming near Jordan Lake with a limp. After caring folks saw this and called Animal Resources, Jordie willingly got in a crate. It was discovered that Jordie had a very badly broken rear right leg caused most likely by being hit by a vehicle. Time was not on her side.
Jordie was taken into foster care and thanks to many generous people she was able to get the surgery she needed to repair her leg. She then had to spend many weeks in a splint and with limited movement and follow up vet appointments. However, this did not dampen her spirit at all. She has been a wonderful patient throughout the process and earned many praises from veterinary professionals. After two months of recovery, Jordie seems to have no issues with her leg bothering her.
Jordie is looking for her forever home now and it will need to be a special match. She will make someone a wonderful companion.
