Description:
Meet Princess Anastasia, a regal, purebred, 5 year old, 65 pound, German Shepherd who has raised a beautiful litter - Alexei, Dmitri, Ekaterina and Nikolai - and is now ready for a family of her own. She is truly an angel in fur, a perfect blend of intelligence, playfulness, and unwavering devotion. Fully house-trained and crate-trained, she is an absolute dream to live with, effortlessly adapting to any routine. Anastasia adores people, forming deep connections with everyone she meets, making her the perfect office buddy who will sit by your side, quietly offering companionship. She’s also great with other dogs, always knowing when to play hard and when to tell them “no” if needed, and she’s good with cats too! Her love for soft and chewy toys, chasing balls, and engaging in fun challenges makes her both a joyful playmate and a peaceful companion. Anastasia isn’t just smart—she’s a certified genius, having participated in cognitive research at NC State, proving time and time again just how clever she truly is. Whether she’s impressing you with her flawless sit, stay, and recall commands, curling up beside you for a quiet moment, or eagerly engaging in playtime, she is simply perfection. She has such good recall, she doesn't need a fenced in yard. As one of her favorite quotes suggests, “Intelligence will never stop being beautiful”—and Princess Anastasia embodies both in the most incredible way.
