My story

New info!  Pinkie girl has been with us quite awhile, she went to a foster to adopt but got herself in trouble as typical to her breed she needs an experienced handler who doesnt have a hard time putting rules and boundaries in place. She LOVES her person and her space really anything that is "hers". She is e collar trained, prong collar trained, crate trained, house trained and good with cats and dogs (dog savvy cats and had to be told for the first few weeks to leave them alone occasionally). She needs routine, love with boundaries, and is an amazing dog who will give you the absolute best cuddles and boops. She is only about 1.6 years now 18lbs, lives with various other dogs, probably best no younger kids as she is a herding breed who is prone to wanting to herd fast moving things, she did live with kids from 8 and up previously. She knows all her basic commands (sit, down, off, no, stay, come) she would love a fenced property where she can exist outside during the day and hunt anything that moves (squirrels, chipmunks, lizards), she enjoys a baby pool, she likes walks and going in the car with her person, she prefers not to say hi to strangers and should be introduced slowly and with treats or put away when people visit until she knows them. We will train any serious home on her commands and how to use the tools shes been trained on. (Video of her in river in comment- I hope ) Pinky. She is a 1 year old 18lb Mini Aussie Pom mix whose all smarts of the aussie breed and pom love bug, she is good with other dogs, can co-exist with cats (occasionally chases if they run but listens very well to NO), has basic commands and leash skills, LOVES her crate and is amazing in a crate or kennel. She is a sweet girl with more of a shorter semi fluffy aussie mix coat. She has been a joy to have here in foster at my house and would thrive with anyone who has the knowledge of herding or smart breeds who love daily walk, playtime and food/treat puzzles for mental stimulation. She is amazingly smart and picks up a routine really fast and learns what is expected and isn't OK in a new home pretty quickly. She is great with our 10 other dogs and fosters from 2lbs to 80lbs. She is house trained as well and has had no accidents since coming to our house. She can be a little leery of men, and some new people in her environment and will run away or bark but will accept a treat and a couple scratches, warming up more over time.     If interested please follow these steps: 1. fill out and submit an application online at: https://form.jotform.com/240361716308149 2. Please send in home and yard photos for approval. *please note: We like to do 2 week Foster to Adopts on adult dogs,so the dogs don't have to move around as much and they can bond and make sure they fit into your home before completion of adoption.* Dogs adoption fee's will include vet visit/exam, spay/neuter, microchip, blood work up/dental if vet says it is needed, dewormed, up to date on shots (DHPP and Rabies, Bordetella can be done if requested we don't do it normally as we don't have the dogs in boarding, dog parks or high risk locations), Current on 1 dose of flea treatment in case they brought any with them from CA.  If anything isn't mentioned please ask. Adoption fees vary $300-$500 depending on the dog and medical care needed/required. Adoption fee for each dog will be noted in write up. ##2215447##

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Pinky, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
