CYMBALTA - LABRADOR RETRIEVER / AUSTRALIAN SHEPHERD / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever / Australian Shepherd / Mixed. () One of our mood booster girls and currently figuring out life without her sisters. She’s 5 months old. About 37 lbs. Heinz 57 mystery mix. All legs. All puppy. Up until recently she was in a pile with her siblings. Now she’s in Massachusetts, in a new house, with new people, learning how to be brave on her own. So yes, sometimes she pauses in new places. That’s called being five months old and fresh off transport. At home? Total puppy but com s when called. Zoomies in the yard. Fetch enthusiast. Chew sticks are serious business. Follows you from room to room like you’re the most interesting thing she’s ever seen. She uses her yard potty spot like a champ and does well with puppy pads but has gone 2 days with only pottying in yard!!!! She is good about asking to go outside. She is starting to potty on walks that’s just a routine she hasn’t mastered yet She sleeps crated in her foster’s room and does fine. She’d prefer not to be alone in it right now, which makes sense considering she just left her sisters. Independence is coming. She’s been around another dog and showed interest in playing. Another playful dog would probably make her very happy, but an active home works too. She may alert bark at someone walking by or the doorbell. Normal puppy watchdog stuff. She knows stay( more of a suggestion), sit,paw, “out,” and “off.” Very treat motivated! She enjoys training and puzzle toys. She adapts moderately quickly and gains confidence with repetition. Cymba (lta) is affectionate without being overwhelming. She gives kisses, stays close, and wants to be included. If you’re looking for a young dog who is still learning, still growing, and will bond deeply with her people, she’s ready. This dog is up to date on vaccinations and is spayed or neutered. (Please note: Puppies under 3 months old may not be sterilized prior to adoption. If this is the case, your adoption coordinator will provide guidance on the process.)

PLEASE READ: • If a dog or puppy is listed, they are currently available for adoption. However, they may already be pending an adoption, and their profile may not yet reflect this. • All information is accurate to the best of our knowledge as of the posting date. • Unless explicitly stated, Sandy Paws Rescue does not guarantee the breed of any dog. Breeds listed are educated guesses made by shelter staff, volunteers, or veterinarians. Many of our dogs are mixed breeds, often with pit bull-type genetics, resulting in a wide variety of physical traits and temperaments. Our dogs come from various situations, such as kill shelters, owner surrenders, or as strays. It is likely both parents were mixed breeds as well. Sandy Paws Rescue does not have a public shelter in Massachusetts. Our dogs reside in private foster homes or boarding kennels in the South until adopted. Many dogs are spoken for prior to transport or release from state-mandated isolation. For information on adoption fees, procedures, or FAQs, visit our website: .sandypawsrescue.
