Australian Shepherd and Great Pyrenees Dogs Available for Adoption

Meet Licorice! Nashville’s Sweetest Little Shadow.

Licorice is a shy, gentle girl who needs a little time to settle in, but once she feels safe, her goofy personality comes out in the best ways. She’s a playful chewer with a knack for turning everyday objects into toys, and she’s still a proud stealer of socks and anything else she can sneak away with. Her mischief is harmless and full of charm, the kind that keeps you smiling.

Because she’s naturally timid, Licorice does best with a confident, steady dog in the home who can show her the ropes and help her feel secure. She gets along wonderfully with other dogs, is cat friendly, and she’s great with kids over 6, making her a lovely fit for a calm, respectful family environment.

Licorice walks beautifully on a leash and is fully crate trained, treating her crate like her cozy safe space. She’s still working on housebreaking and benefits from routine and patience. In new or overwhelming situations, she can be a nervous drooler, but reassurance and a calm environment help her settle.

Licorice will thrive with adopters who understand that shy dogs bloom slowly but beautifully. Once she trusts you, she becomes deeply affectionate, silly, and loyal. The kind of dog who tiptoes into your heart and then steals your socks on the way out.
