Hi there. My name is Miss Piggy, and I am a young German Shepherd with just a little bit of Husky mixed in. I got my name because when I was born I was the biggest girl in the litter. I made sure to push my brothers and sisters out of the way so I could nurse first. Somehow, I still ended up being the smallest now that we are older. So unfair!
Like most young shepherds, I have plenty of energy and personality. I would love an active family who enjoys playtime, walks, and spending time outside. I absolutely love playing ball. Sometimes I chase it and sometimes I try to steal it from my foster dad. Both options are equally fun. I also like carrying sticks around the yard just to tease my brother and sister. Stuffed toys are one of my favorite things. If you hand me one, I can turn it into a fluffy snowstorm in record time. Squeaky toys usually last a few days before I figure them out.
Even though I love to play, I also have an affectionate side. My foster parents cannot give me enough belly rubs and chest scratches. I will happily stretch across their laps asking for more attention.
I currently live with foster grandkids who are 4 and 8 years old and I do well with them. I can get a little excited and jump when I want attention, so I would likely do best in a home with slightly older children who understand that I am still learning my manners.
I am house trained and know how to use a doggie door. I am still working on my leash skills and my foster family is helping me continue my training and socialization so I can be the best dog possible for my future family.
There is an outdoor cat where I live who prefers to keep her distance from me, so I am not quite sure how I would do with cats if one decided to get closer.
My foster parents even did DNA testing on my parents. My mom is 100% German Shepherd and my dad is 81% German Shepherd and 19% Husky. I was born on July 20, 2025.
Miss Piggy is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on all vaccines and preventions.

Something to Consider:
Puppies don't train themselves
If you aren’t willing to train a puppy every single day, don’t get a puppy! It isn’t a one-shot deal. You have to be dedicated. And if you aren’t making progress – find someone who can help. Enroll in a puppy training class or hire a trainer. Most cities across the nation have some sort of availability for this kind of help and at different cost levels that would fit your budget.
Puppies are going to poop a lot and pee even more; chew on everything; bite everyone; scratch people and furniture; steal things; destroy something at some point; pull on the leash; not move at all on the leash; bark; cry; beg for attention; and the list goes on. You’re going to have to walk them, bathe them, pick up everything below waist height, buy new shoes, and most importantly: TRAIN THE PUPPY NOT TO DO THESE THINGS! Ultimately, it is your responsibility to teach your puppy that this behavior is unacceptable.
Puppies turn into dogs...
