Sheena, the Dog of the Day
Name: Sheena
Age: Eight years old
Gender: Female Breed: German Shepherd
Home: Carthage, New York, USA
 
   I would like you to meet Sheena, who is an eight-year-old German Shepherd who resides with us in Carthage, NY. Sheena came to us eight years ago after we lost our eleven year old German Shepherd, Sheba, to cancer. Sheena certainly kept life interesting. She was eight weeks old when we got her and loved to chew. While at work one day, I came home to find that she had literally chewed up our couch and chair. The cushions were totally chewed up and the stuffing was all over the house. The wooden legs on the furniture had been gnawed. It got to be a standing joke at the office to see what Sheena would do next. During her puppyhood, she ruined Christmas decorations, knick knacks, shoes, slippers, etc. Eventually, the chewing stopped (there wasn't anything left in the house she could wreck). She is very protective and if any stranger comes into the house, she circles them and won't let them move until I tell her it's okay. She is the most loving and faithful dog. As you can see by the photo, she is also a little spoiled but we love her dearly.
