Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet SHY!
DOB: ~May 6, 2024
Shy is a sweet and gentle pup with beautiful blue eyes, looking for her forever home. She is dog-friendly, kennel-trained, and has a gentle mouth when taking treats. She’s treat-motivated, eager to learn, and would thrive in a home that’s ready to help her continue her training. Shy has been living in a boarding facility, so she will need some work on potty training, but she’s a quick learner and will catch on fast with consistent guidance.
Shy and her littermates were trapped at a local park inside a fenced baseball diamond field in August, after running from people trying to catch them. Their previous owner never came forward. Despite their rough start, Shy is a wonderful, sweet pup with so much potential.
Apply to meet Shy today!
Background:
Trapped at a park: Found in August inside a fenced baseball diamond field
Sibling Info: Shy and her littermates are all very similar in temperament
Training Needs: Potty training in progress; treat-motivated, quick learner
Possible Breed Information:
Shy is believed to be a mix of Husky and possibly either Australian Shepherd or German Shepherd. Below are some general characteristics of these breeds to help guide potential adopters.
Husky Traits:
Size: Medium to large, typically weighing between 35-60 pounds
Energy Level: High; needs daily exercise to stay happy
Personality: Friendly, independent, and alert
Temperament: Generally gentle, though may have a strong prey drive and vocal tendencies when bored
Exercise Needs: Requires regular, vigorous physical activity like running or long walks
Australian Shepherd or German Shepherd Traits:
Size: Medium to large, with a weight range of 40-88 pounds
Personality: Intelligent, loyal, and protective
Temperament: Gentle yet confident, making them good family dogs
Exercise Needs: These breeds require regular mental and physical stimulation, often excelling in active homes
These mixes are expected to be active, intelligent dogs that will benefit from structured activities and training. They are likely to be affectionate and playful companions with a strong bond to their family.
Training and Socialization Needs:
Socialization: Early socialization with people and other dogs will be key to developing a well-mannered dog.
Activity: These breeds are high-energy and will need plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. They thrive with daily walks, play sessions, and interactive training.
Companionship: These pups are used to being with other dogs, so they will do well in a home with other pets and may have separation anxiety if left alone for extended periods.
Health Considerations:
High Energy & Exercise Needs: To keep these dogs healthy and avoid boredom, regular physical and mental exercise is essential.
Socialization & Training: Positive reinforcement training works best, especially for active, intelligent breeds like these.
Regular Grooming: These dogs may have coats that require regular brushing, particularly if they inherit the Husky's thicker fur.
Breed Disclaimer:
The breed information provided is based on the appearance of the pup and DNA testing from other littermates, and is not a guarantee of the exact breed or traits. These mixes are estimated to have characteristics of the Husky, Australian Shepherd, or German Shepherd, but the actual breed makeup may vary. The details provided about the breeds are meant to offer general guidance based on common breed traits but are not definitive.

We require a foster or adoption application to qualify to foster or adopt our animals. We do check your current veterinary reference and landlord approval if renting. The next step is a "meet and greet" with all family members and/or household occupants, and current pets. Upon approval, we offer a "trial adoption" period that allows adopter to make sure of a good fit for both the dog and family. Adoption is final when adoption contract (different from application) is filled out and signed, and adoption fee is paid. Our adoption fees range from $75 - $300 (puppies) currently, but are subject to revision if our veterinary costs rise.
