Meet Jolene — or “Jo” for short!

This sweet 61⁄2-month-old mixed-breed puppy is about 25 pounds of curiosity, cuddles, and puppy fun. Jo absolutely loves people and has never met a stranger. She gets along wonderfully with other dogs and is happiest when she’s part of the action — whether that’s snuggling in bed, playing indoors, or exploring outside.

Jolene loves soft toys, bones, and spending time with her humans. She’s very close to being potty trained and is currently learning leash walking and basic commands. She’s smart, affectionate, and eager to please — truly the sweetest good girl!

Jolene is up-to-date on vaccines and will be spayed prior to adoption.

Jolene is currently being fostered in southeast Kansas.

Australian Shepherds have a distinctive medium length coat that comes in different colors, often with unique merle patterns. With proper training, socialization, and exercise, these dogs make excellent companions for active families and individuals seeking a devoted and playful four legged friend.
