Description
Dog Breed: Cairn Terrier (medium coat). Miss Sky came in with another dog when their owner passed away. She was initially very shy and fearful, but has really improved with daily time with dedicated Volunteers. She enjoys affection, but also appreciates having her own space at times. She also walks great on leash. The other dog left the shelter, and now its Miss Sky's turn. If you have love in your heart and a patient nature to give this girl a little time to process all the changes life has thrown at her lately, Sky will surely reward you with love and appreciation. Come meet Sky today :) To meet me, visit the Bradshaw Animal Shelter Tuesday-Sunday, Noon - 5:00 pm, Wednesdays, Noon - 6:00 pm. All adoptions are on a first-come, first-served basis. To help expedite the meet and greet process, please make note of my Animal ID number, and those of other dogs you might be interested in meeting. Be sure to bring your ID with you, too. We are located at 3839 Bradshaw Road, Sacramento. I look forward to getting to know you!

Cairn Terrier
A.K.A.: Short-haired Skye Terrier, Little Skye, Prick-Eared Skye Terrier, Dwarf Skye, Cairn, Cairns, Cairns Terrier
Overview:
The Cairn Terrier, originating from the Scottish Highlands, is a small yet sturdy and spirited dog, famously recognized for its role as "Toto" in The Wizard of Oz. Physically, they boast a shaggy, weatherproof double coat, typically in colors like cream, wheaten, red, sandy, brindle, or gray, along with distinctive prick ears and a short, perky tail. Known for their confident, curious, and intelligent temperament, Cairns are lively companions who thrive on interaction and mental stimulation. They are generally good with children and can adapt well to apartment living provided they receive adequate daily exercise and playtime, as their inquisitive nature requires engagement. While typically a robust breed, potential health concerns can include luxating patella, various eye conditions, and certain skin allergies, making regular veterinary check-ups important for their long-term well-being.
