Gum Drop - Australian Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Billerica, Massachusetts

GUM DROP

Gum Drop is about 13 weeks old, around 7 lbs, and one of the happiest, friendliest little puppies youll meet. She is deaf and has one eye that never fully developed, but neither slows her down one bit.

This girl LOVES everyone. She is super friendly, loves other dogs, does great with cats, and is always ready to play. Toys are her absolute favorite, and we recently discovered shes also a little water girl. She has a great sense of smell, loves her snacks, and when she finally crashes after playing, she sleeps HARD.

Gum Drop is also doing amazing in her foster home. She is crate trained and has started learning how to check in with her person using a vibration collar. When she feels the vibration, looks to her person, and checks in, she gets a treat. Shes already catching on! Being deaf just means she learns and communicates a little differently.

Her funky little eye has been that way since she was rescued and doesnt stop her from playing, exploring, or keeping up with everyone else. If anything, we think it just adds to her ridiculously cute personality.

Gum Drop is a sweet, social, playful little puppy who doesnt need anyone to feel sorry for her. She just needs a family ready to love everything that makes her Gum Drop.
