Sasha: 2007 to 2021

Sasha came home with me on 20 January, 2012, from a German Shepherd Dog rescue several hours west of Ottawa. She is a 5 year old long-haired (coated) German Shepherd and this is the name she came with, uncannily similar to that of my late Tasha!! Her story, as far as I know it, is that she was rescued from a situation in Missouri where she, and many other dogs, were kept chained all day, 24/7, for years. She was then sent up to the shepherd rescue here to see if a home could be found for her. I doubt she'd been mis-treated, just ignored, because she is very people friendly, fine with my cats, and when I went to see her, she was happily playing and living with many other dogs. She is smaller than my greatly-missed Tasha, and her colouring is more red and black rather than black and tan. She is a lovely girl and once she gets over the shock of being moved, yet again, she will be absolutely fine. It is a delight to have her!!!

A wonderful gallery. This reminds me of our dog Misha, a shepherd mix that was rescued from a similar situation, also in Missouri. The dogs were chained outside all of the time, Misha's ear tips were scarred from constant biting flies. We got her from a a local rescue outfit here in Minnesota in August 2010 age 9 months. She is a very sweet and playful dog.

What is interesting about this series is the change in her eyes. It reminds me of a flower opening one petal at a time. She is a beautiful spirit!

It is always nice to hear a story with a happy ending. She is beautiful and you are both very lucky. I feel the same about my Maine Coon cat I adopted one year ago. We needed each other! Voted.

I just when back and viewed all the shots of Sasha since you got her. She was always beautiful but she now has the look of a confident, happy dog. It seems like you have both been good for each other. Always great to see your photos of this wonderful dog.
