Meet Sunni - Your Daily Dose of SunshineSunni's story began before she ever knew what a "home" was. Her mama was rescued in very rough shape by a kind friend who helped nurse her back to health. Unfortunately, before she could be spayed, an unexpected litter arrived. When it became clear that caring for mom and puppies was too much, rescue stepped in - and that's how sweet Sunni got her second chance at a happy life.Sunni is a gorgeous Siberian Husky / Mini Australian Shepherd mix with a stunning tri-colored coat and warm brown eyes, accented by the cutest little blue spot in her left eye - her signature sparkle.Sunni is everything you'd hope for in a young dog: loving, loyal, and eager to be involved in whatever you're doing. She's happiest when she's near her people, whether that means going for a walk, tossing toys in the yard, or soaking up attention from the kids. She adores children (ages 5-13 approved!), is wonderful with adults, and gets along beautifully with other dogs and even cats.In her foster home, Sunni lives with 10 dogs of all sizes and ages and fits right in. She's house trained (as long as she's not left too long), crate trained, and knows her basic commands like sit, come, and stay - though her "stay" is still a work in progress, and she'd love a family who enjoys training and bonding together.Sunni walks nicely on leash, isn't reactive, and comes when called. She's not a flight risk and wants to be close rather than wander off. She rides well in the car (shorter trips are best since she can get carsick) and is easy to handle and touch. She may bark occasionally, but she listens when told to quiet down - smart and polite!At mealtime, Sunni prefers her own space around other dogs, so she eats in her crate - no issues at all with people. She's medium energy, not destructive, and would thrive in a home with a yard where she can run, play, and explore. While she could be an only dog, she'd love a playful canine buddy to share her days with. Apartment life isn't her style, but a home with room and love certainly is.Sunni is a loyal heart wrapped in a beautiful coat - ready to give her forever family unconditional love, laughter, and sunshine every single day.
