They’ve never experienced a day apart.

Now a Cork dog shelter has put the call out for a kind animal lover to offer a forever home to two abandoned German Shepherds who come as a pair.

Pixie and Jessie arrived at Cork Dog Action Welfare (DAWG) through no fault of their own and have been model residents ever since, charming every volunteer who comes into contact with them.

While they are large dogs, they are loving and mild-mannered, and happiest in each other’s company, which is why it is important they are not separated.

“Pixie and Jessie, two devoted sisters, are still looking for a family.” said a spokesperson for DAWG.

“These girls are six years old, they eat together, sleep together and play together. They are fabulous girls and exceptionally well-behaved.”

German Shepherds are known as loyal, confident companions. Highly intelligent, the breed can make gentle family pets and respond well to training and commands.

“They don’t ask for much, just for some kindness and love. Any family would be lucky to have these girls in their home so if you have room for them, please fill in a form.”

These two are best suited to a home where any children are aged over 10. You can find out more about Pixie and Jessie here.
