PISTACHIO - GERMAN SHEPHERD DOG / AUSTRALIAN SHEPHERD / MIXED (MEDIUM COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog / Australian Shepherd / Mixed (medium coat). Hi! I’m Pistachio! I’m a playful, curious puppy who was found roaming the Mississippi fields with my best friend Copper . We were BESTIES—running, playing, and getting into harmless puppy trouble together . As fun as that life was, my rescue knew it wouldn’t be safe or fair for us as we grow up, so now I’m here—ready to find my forever family . I’m a fun-loving little girl who absolutely enjoys getting into mischief with my friends (LOL—no shame!). I’m still a baby, so I’ll need consistent training, socialization, and lots of playtime to help me grow into a confident, well‑mannered dog . ⏰ Because I’m still learning everything, my future family shouldn’t leave me alone for more than 3 hours a day. I currently eat three meals a day ️ and need frequent potty breaks —puppy life is busy business! Training classes are required for me. Puppies may be adorable (and trust me—I KNOW I am ), but raising one takes real commitment. Too often people fall in love with our looks and forget how much guidance we need, which can lead to poor socialization and training later on . That’s not fair to puppies—or their families. My rescue is dedicated to helping puppies succeed, not fail . That means my future family must be 1000% on board to put in the time, patience, and love to help me become the amazing dog I’m meant to be ❤️. If you’re ready for the hard work and the incredible rewards, I promise a lifetime of love, joy, and tail wags . Apply today for me, Pistachio! I’m a loving girl with so much potential, just waiting for the right family to grow up with ✨ If interested in Pistachio, please apply online: ADOPTION APPLICATION or email us at Info.FetchingHeartsRescuegmail.
