Indi (3y) is a bundle of energy, loyalty and personality! If you're looking for a dog who is ready to keep up with your active lifestyle, Indi is your girl! Why you'll love her: high-energy & athletic, hiking/swimming on long leash; super smart & well trained, completed a 4wk obedience program- knows commands & thrives on structure; sweet w/people & kids, has been especially gentle w/our baby; playful & fun, loves her barkbox toys, will keep you entertained w/her goofy & lovable personality! Indi has a strong prey drive- NO CATS. Needs an experienced owner who can provide structure, attention & exercise, perfect for a family who wants a loyal companion for outdoor adventures! Indi gets along w/our other dog (large male, huge whimp) 95% of the time. But every now & then, she stirs up some trouble. If you are looking for a 4legged pup who will keep you moving, make you laugh & love you endlessly, Indi is your girl!

Story
Seeking Fur-ever Home for Molly We are puzzled why sweet Molly hasn't found her forever home yet! Even though Molly has beautiful dark Merle Markings trying to come through (she gets it from her momma), in pictures she is seen as a mostly all black dog, Molly faces a harsh reality: black dogs are the last to get adopted, and the number one breed euthanized in shelters. Molly is a gem, and we're determined to find her the loving family she deserves. Molly is a 20-week-old Australian Shepherd mix, told dad was possibly a plothound mix. She is a sweet puppy with a bundle of energy, love, and affection to offer. She's curious, playful, and food-motivated, making her a great candidate for training and learning. With her Australian Shepherd heritage, she's likely to grow into a smart and loyal companion. Here are some key details about Molly: - Age: 20 weeks - Weight: 22lbs - Breed: Australian Shepherd mix (Mom Australian Shepherd mix, Dad possibly plothound mix) - Size: Expected to grow to medium size (35-50 lbs) - Vetting: Up-to-date on vaccines and monthly preventatives - Personality: Playful, affectionate, energetic, and smart - Training: potty trained, leash trained, and learning to sit. Molly loves people, other dogs of all sizes, and is doing great walking on a leash. She's ready to bring joy and companionship to her forever family! If you're interested in adopting Molly, please send us a message or fill out an application. Let's find Molly her fur-ever home and give her the love and happiness she deserves!
