More: My dog came in my life after I had to put down my older dog Conman. During that time, my German Sheppard female Aunie started losing weight and turned out she had a mass on her spleen. She was only five. I lost both of them within weeks of each other. I came across Shamrock's photo online he came from Mexico. He is sweet, cuddly, and smart. Great disposition. He is energetic and loves to be with me. I call him my lucky charm.
