CALLIOPE #MISS-CONGENIALITY
Australian Kelpie, Shepherd
🇺🇸
Houston, Texas
April 5th
female, medium, young
DESCRIPTION
LOVES TO SNUGGLE AND GET OODLES OF ATTENTION
Estimated DOB 3/25/24, weight 40 lbs.
This young girl Calliope is very sweet and playful, and has energy to spare! Her foster home has several dogs and Calliope wants to play -- er -- wrestle with all of them. She loves to go on walks, meet new people, play with her stuffed animal toys, and snuggle on the couch for movie time.
Calliope was abandoned in the parking lot of a PetSmart but fortunately, her future foster mom worked at the store and scooped her right up! Calliope knows Sit and Wait, and likes to sleep in her crate at night.
Calliope would love a home where she can get lots of attention and exercise as well as have a canine brother or sister to play with. Is that you?
HOPE ID D24-1116-0045
Calliope's $200 adoption fee includes spay/neuter, basic vaccines, microchip and registration, testing for heartworms, negative fecal test, and preventative treatment for heartworms and fleas.
