In the shelter’s words

Meet Sierra — Ready for Her Fresh Start! Sierra is a beautiful approximately 3-year-old, 49-pound girl who is hoping her next chapter will finally be the one she deserves. Sierra arrived at the shelter as a stray, and sadly, no one ever came looking for her. We can only imagine how confusing it must have been to suddenly find herself without a family, but despite being abandoned, Sierra hasn’t let it dampen her spirit. She remains a happy, energetic, and enthusiastic girl who is ready to make the most of every day! Sierra has plenty of energy and is eager to experience everything life has to offer. She will need a family who understands that she is still learning and is willing to patiently show her the ropes. With patience, consistency, positive training, and plenty of exercise, we believe Sierra has tremendous potential to become an amazing companion. So far, Sierra has shown that she has a wonderful, people-pleasing personality and is eager to learn, making her a joy to have around. She responds well to guidance and loves being praised for a job well done. She enjoys the company of other dogs and has done well around cats, especially when introductions and playtime are thoughtfully managed. She can get excited when she's having fun, which just shows her enthusiasm for life! She has also been great with teenagers. She’s the kind of girl who will thrive when she has someone to guide her, teach her, and include her in life's adventures. Once she learns what is expected of her, we think Sierra will be a wonderful, devoted member of the family. Sierra's dream is simple: a family who will believe in her, teach her, keep her active, and most importantly, never give up on her. This beautiful girl has so much happiness and love to share. All she needs is someone willing to give her the second chance she’s been waiting for. Adoption fee includes: first 2 DAPP, bordetella, deworming, flea preventative, sterilized, heartworm test, microchip Adoption fee: $375.00
