TINSEL CAINRD *LOCAL* - BEAGLE / AUSTRALIAN SHEPHERD / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Beagle / Australian Shepherd / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: $685. To apply to adopt this dog now, complete our adoption application HERE To see our upcoming events where you can meet some of our dogs, please see HERE Age: 5 months (as of 1/11/26) Weight: 17 lbs (as of 1/11/26) Location: RI This dog has been spayed/neutered, is up to date on shots, on heartworm preventative and is microchipped. Meet Tinsel, a delightful puppy with a heart full of joy and love. Tinsel is a sweet and loving boy who can be timid at first with new people and in new situations. When in a familiar and comfortable setting, he loves playing with his toys and doing normal puppy things! Like playing with toys, chewing on chews, wrestling and chasing other pups, and cuddling in laps while showering his host with sweet puppy kisses! Tinsel would do best in a lower foot traffic home that is relatively quiet with predictable noises, movements and routines. He would love to have another social adult dog around, but that's not necessary. His adopter will need to follow his lead in terms of how long and big his outtings and social experiences are, moving his exposures along at his pace. He will likely never be comfortable being a brewery-go-everywhere dog, but he is well on his way to making a wonderful companion pet. He has seen cats and not been too interested, so could likely learn to coexist peacefully with them, though he may want to play with them, as most puppies would! Tinsel is crate trained, and is working hard on house training as well as walking on the leash. We strongly recommend that all our dogs attend obedience classes because you get to learn commands together, and it offers an opportunity for confidence building and socialization for the dog. If you're looking for a loyal friend who brings laughter and love, Tinsel is waiting to fill your home with happiness. An adoption donation is required for each adoption; please see HERE for more information about this.

We get to know each of our dogs as an individual and do our best to describe and place them based on personality not breed label. Some dogs may not yet be in New England, nor ready for immediate adoption. There may be additional vetting, quarantine, waiting periods and/or fees depending upon your state of residence. If you have questions or concerns on any of this, you can discuss this with your Adoption Counselor.
