Meet Margo

Please help us welcome Margo to the Saving Shepherds of Mn family. This little girl was seen running and then she was seen getting hit by a car. When people went to help, she was gone, 2 weeks later she was found limping in the middle of nowhere, emaciated and injured. As we suspected, no one came looking for her. We estimate her to be 2-3 years old and she is just the sweetest little thing. After all she has been through, she still let the staff touch her all over to examine her.  X-rays showed damage to her hip, which required surgery to repair.  Margo’s hip surgery went well and after she healed, she was spayed!  We estimate her to be about 2 years old, up to date on vaccinations, heartworm negative and microchipped. She is people and dog friendly! We will try and cat test her once she’s all healed up! Update from Margo’s foster! My foster mom says I am perfect German Shepherd.  My previous life wasn’t so fun. I’ve had some severe trauma to my back leg & that injury wasn’t treated at the time. Then I got hit by a car & the doctors fixed me up. I’ve had some surgeries. So I will have a limp for the rest of my life, but it doesn’t stop me. I am fast. I love to play & run. I am like a puppy in a 2 year old dog’s body. Everyone says I’m pretty small for my age. I’m a petite girl, a pocket shepherd! My old life I didn’t get regular feedings like I do now, so I am food driven. I do like to be alone in my kennel when I eat. I will take treats from you ever so gently. I am working on learning basic commands. I would love a home with other dogs, preferably boy dogs. If I’m the only dog, that’s ok too. I love my name & when I hear it I’ll come running. I never got to play before. I’m looking for my forever home. A fence would be preferred as I love to run around. A kennel where I can eat all by myself. A bed where I can cuddle. I would love to learn more because I am very smart. Also I am potty trained. I am the best girl!
