Australian Shepherd and Labrador Retriever Dogs Available for Adoption in Millcreek, Utah

Meet Gretel 🐾

Gretel is a black and white Australian Shepherd mix puppy with a soft, fluffy coat and a very clear sense of what she wants. She's expected to be around 40-55 lbs full grown.

Gretel is smart, social, and a little opinionated--in the best way. She enjoys being around people and other dogs and likes to stay close, but she's not just along for the ride... she has thoughts. Whether it's choosing the best spot in the yard or letting you know it's time for attention, Gretel isn't shy about sharing her perspective.

Like many Australian Shepherd mixes, she's intelligent and will thrive in a home that can provide structure, activity, and mental stimulation. She'll pick up training quickly, but she'll also keep you on your toes with her confident, spirited personality.

She'll be ready for her new home on 5/6.

Please note: We do not adopt puppies together.

If you're looking for a smart, confident companion with a little bit of sass and a lot of personality, Gretel might be your girl. If you are interested in adopting a CAWS pet, please fill out an online application at https://caws.org/adoption-application
