In the shelter’s words

Meet the Sweet Girl Who Is Ready for Her Forever Family Some dogs come into rescue and immediately steal a little piece of your heart. This beautiful girl is one of those dogs. She is sweet, loving, incredibly smart, and absolutely gorgeous. And those eyes… how could you possibly resist? She has one warm brown eye and one beautiful blue eye, giving her a unique look that you simply can't forget. We believe she is part Australian Shepherd and part Blue Heeler, and she seems to have gotten the very best of both breeds. She's intelligent, energetic, playful, and full of personality. She loves being involved in whatever her people are doing and is happiest when she has someone to love, something to explore, or a furry friend to play with. And speaking of furry friends—she LOVES other dogs! She currently lives with three resident dogs in her foster home and has become a regular part of their little pack. She loves running, wrestling, playing, and simply being around her canine friends. A home with another playful, friendly dog would be a wonderful fit for her. She is also wonderful with children. She loves our kids and has shown us what a sweet, affectionate family dog she can be. This girl has so much love and energy to give. She's the kind of dog who wants to be your companion—to go on adventures with you, play in the yard, curl up with you after a busy day, and simply be wherever her people are. Because she is smart and energetic, she's looking for a family who will keep her active both physically and mentally. Give her walks, playtime, adventures, training, and lots of love, and she'll give you something even more valuable in return: her whole heart. Behind those two beautiful eyes is a dog who is ready for a second chance and a family of her very own. She doesn't need to be the perfect dog. She just needs someone who will see how special she already is and promise her that this time, she's home. If you're looking for a loving, playful, beautiful, smart companion who will adore you with her whole heart, this sweet girl may be the one you've been waiting for. Adoption fee includes: Full veterinary exam, Alter, Prepaid microchip, Dewormed, Rabies vaccine (if age appropriate), Distemper combo vaccine(s) appropriate to age, Bordetella vaccine, 4DX (over 6 months of age), Flea/tick and heartworm preventative while in rescue. Adoption fee: $625.00
