Description

Dog Breed: Australian Shepherd / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 550. Meet Owen! Aussie Shepherd Mix | Born ~5/17 | Puppy Owen is a sweet, goofy little guy with a big personality and an even bigger heart.

This smart pup has an impressive sense of balance for his age—he knows exactly when it’s time to take a break and settle in for a nap, no reminders needed! Owen is also a fast learner who’s both food-motivated and eager to please. He lights up at praise and will work just as hard for kind words as he will for a tasty treat.

If you're looking for a pup who’s equal parts silly, snuggly, and smart—Owen’s your boy.
