Angie's family gave her the gift of time to adjust

Beautiful Angie was adopted from our shelter in August. Although she is smiling now, Angie had a bit of a rough start, her new family told us — she was incredibly anxious about being in a new environment with new people and spent most of her time the first week just pacing.

Instead of giving up on this sweet shepherd, her family gave her the time and space and love to decompress after the stress that follows dogs when they land in shelters.

Her family says that Angie is doing so much better now.

"She is so sweet and loving. When she wants attention, she comes right up to you and lays her head on you until you pet her.

"We live on a quiet lane that is great for walks, and she loves going to a local park that has a good walking trail. She loves meeting new people and thinks everyone she meets is her new best friend.

"She's becoming friends with another German Shepherd named Bella that we sometimes watch.

"We are so happy that we adopted her. She has become a great addition to our family."

We are so happy that you adopted Angie from the Clinton County Humane Society and gave her the room to settle in! Thank you!
