Here's what Lost Angels Animal Rescue has to say about Sasha:

Behold classic beauty and companionship. Sasha is a purebred 9-month-old German shepherd rescued from a public shelter — now healthy, vaccinated, spayed and microchipped for the right home. Highly intelligent, friendly and devoted, Sasha's an ace in obedience class, and loves kids and other dogs, too. So sashay on over to meet Sasha the shepherd from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday at the Doggie Carnival at 6106 Knights Griffin Road in Plant City. Visit lostangelsanimalrescue.org for adoption and event details.
