Meet Zelda, a two-year-old German Shepherd mix weighing 67 pounds.

Zelda is a beautiful, intelligent girl who was found adventuring with her friend Erma. While they get along great, Zelda is totally fine being adopted on her own-she's ready to bond with her very own person or family!

Her finder said she didn't have any accidents in the house, so she may already be potty trained (smart girl!). Zelda is treat-motivated, knows how to sit, and walks pretty well on leash. She has the cutest 3/4-length tail that gives her a little extra character-and makes her even more adorable!

Zelda appears to be a German Shepherd and she's got the smarts and loyalty to prove it. Like many Shepherds, she'll thrive with mental stimulation, gentle leadership, and a loving home where she can feel safe and included. She's affectionate, eager to please, and just waiting to meet her perfect match. Come meet Zelda-you might just find your new best friend.

This pet is available for adoption on 9/15/2025 at 2:12 PM at the Yakima Humane Society adoption center. If you recognize this animal please contact the adoption center at 509-457-6854.

Did you know YHS offers a "Play Date" program?

Whether you are interested in adopting or just want to hang out with a furry friend, it's a fun way to spend an hour, an afternoon or even a couple days. Every Play Date helps staff know more about a pet and helps a pet spend less time in a kennel. It's a win-win! If you are interested in adoption, a play date is a great way to make sure you and your potential new pet are the perfect match. Stop by the front desk or call in and ask how to have your Play Date today.
