Skye – 6-Month-Old Female German Shepherd Puppy

We are looking for a loving and suitable new home for our beautiful German Shepherd, Skye, who is six months old.

Skye is a very affectionate, playful and loving young dog with a lovely calm and gentle temperament. She loves being around people and enjoys attention and play.

Skye has completed eight weeks of puppy training classes, and She knows the commands sit, down, come and is eager to learn.

She is fully vaccinated, including kennel cough, and microchipped. Skye is also brilliant in the car and has accompanied us on many trips.

This is a very difficult decision for us and is through no fault of Skye's. We already have two older small dogs who have found it difficult to adjust to living with a young, much larger and playful puppy. Despite giving them considerable time to settle together, we feel finding Skye the right home while she is still young is the fairest decision for all three dogs.

We would ideally like her to go to someone with experience of German Shepherds or other large breeds and who has the time and space to continue the excellent start she has made.

Finding the right home for Skye is much more important to us than finding one quickly.
Skye is a very special young dog, and our priority is finding her a loving, permanent home where she can thrive. 

1. Keep communication through our messaging system for as long as possible.
2. Choose carefully what information you share about yourself in your messages. Do share info if you have a garden, young kids, or other suitable information to help the seller know you are a suitable buyer.
3. Report suspicious activity to your local Garda Station and to us via the Report ad button.
4. We recommend you print or save a copy of this page for your records in case the ad is updated / closed.

1. Ask sellers to provide an ID (driver's licence / passport) and take note of their contact details. You will also need to provide the same & a proof of address to transfer the microchip to your name.
2. Note microchip IDs posted here (972274200736030) and check the microchip certificates (important) when you visit to make sure they match and the sellers details are on the certificate too (see example microchip certificates).
3. Do not purchase a dog without seeing a microchip certificate. It is illegal to sell a dog without a microchip that's fully registered (info).
4. See puppies in their home environment and see the mother of puppies.
5. Make sure the puppy is 8 weeks before taking ownership of the dog (closer to 10-12 weeks is even better).
6. Do not pay a deposit until you've met the owner & puppy in person.
7. Do not purchase a dog from a seller in a car park or other business location.
8. Ask sellers about the vet who has taken care of the dogs. Ask for the dog's vaccination certificate(s).
9. Use our contract template www.dogs.ie/contract or another as a basis for a written contract & ask for a written receipt.
10. It's best not to bring young kids to first meetings, to avoid disappointment in the case you decide not to buy a dog.
