Australian Shepherd and Shetland Sheepdog Sheltie Dogs Available for Adoption

Meet Annie — a mini Aussie who’s as cute as a button and twice as sweet. She may be a little reserved when meeting new people, but give her a few minutes and she’ll be your shadow, soaking up cuddles and snuggling into the coziest blanket she can find (bonus points if you bring cheese). Annie does well with other animals and has a gentle, loving nature, but she’s still learning the ropes and will need continued training with leash skills, potty routine, and basic cues. With a little patience and a lot of love, Annie is going to make someone an incredibly devoted companion. 💕🐾
