Manako is a 3-year-old spayed female German Shorthaired Pointer mix who is affectionate, gentle, mild mannered, loves attention, great with dogs, children, and ideally suited for someone experienced in handling high-energy working breeds.
Why Manako Needs a New Home
Manako was found as an abandoned stray earlier this year. A good sammie took her in on longterm foster, and has been caring for her. The good sammie has two cats, one of whom doesn’t care for dogs, and this puts strain on the home. She is also starting a new job that would require many days per week being away from the home, and Manako is definitely a dog that thrives with as much attention and snuggles as she can get. Although her current foster mama deeply loves Manako, she knows that her home isn’t the best longterm place for this girl to thrive.
What Manako Needs
Manako would do best in an active home with the time and access for outdoor adventures — this could be a large fenced yard, neighbor hood park, beach, or other outdoor adventures. She currently gets 1-3 mile walk per day, and this suits her well. It is a priority for her to have a dog companion, she craves playtime and the comfort of another dog in the home, and she gets along very well with dogs of all types.
What Manako Offers
- House-trained
- Spayed, microchipped, will be current on all vaccines
- Healthy
- Knows basic obedience cues
- Well socialized with people and animals
- Affectionate, gentle, mild-mannered
The Fine Print
Based on her recent experience being bullied by a cat, Manako may not do well with a cat, but it may depend on a case-by-case situation. She loves to meet people in community, and to spend time with family members. She also does well by herself in the home or the yard for a few hours, we’re not yet sure how she will do for 6-8+ hour stretches inside or outdoors during a work day, so crate-training, doggy day care, a petsitter for mid-day walks, etc. may be needed. Manako is a beautiful soul with so much love to give, we know she will add a huge blessing of companionship, love, and snuggles to her home and family.
