Hope von Holda is a beautiful and gentle 3 year old  German Shepherd.  She is on the shy side and very much in need of a loving family;  once comfortable, she can be very sweet and we just know she will continue to blossom in a loving home.   Hope is curious and loves to explore whenever she goes on walks, so she hopes that her new owner will enjoy walks, too. When she meets other dogs, she is fine with them but is not in any hurry to play, she needs time to get to know other dogs before she can completely relax with them. Similarly, with people, she longs to feel confident and become the loving dog she wants to be, but first, Hope needs a little time to channel her confident self!  Hope is proof that people can and do make all the difference in the lives of voiceless creatures. If you have a little patience and a lot of love, Hope is waiting for you.
