DOB: Jun 7, 2022 Hi there! I’m Torvi, a playful and active German Shepherd mix, and I’m looking for my forever home. I’m all about those fun walks and I do great on a leash, but I can be a little particular when it comes to meeting new friends.

Summer’s a bit tough for me because I run hot, but if you have a pool, that’d be *amazing*! Swimming is my absolute favorite thing to do, but I also love the winter and I don’t get cold…
