Willow

Willow is an adoptable female German Shepherd looking for a home at BARC Animal Shelter in Houston, Texas. She is a young adult and medium in size. She is listed on the shelter's euthanasia list, listed due to lack of space, and that date has now passed. Shelters often move these dates, so Willow may still be waiting. The shelter can confirm.

She has been vocal, barking, whining and scratching or jumping at the kennel/run doors. But outside of her kennel, Willow shows a very different side. Staff repeatedly report that she is easy to leash and walks well on a loose leash. She has walked calmly to and from the runs with a neutral body and low, wagging tail, and has shown curiosity about her surroundings. She returns to her kennel without issue but often begins vocalizing again once confined.
