Noelle - Collie and Australian Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Batesville, Arkansas

Meet Noelle, a sweet black and white beauty who's ready to bring a little holiday magic to her forever family!

Noelle is a possible Collie/Australian Shepherd mix, with a glossy black coat and pretty white markings. Like most young puppies, she's playful, cuddly, and curious, always ready to investigate something new and then settle in for snuggles.

Noelle has been great with dogs, cats, and kids, making her a wonderful fit for a busy household or a first-time pup parent looking for a friendly companion.

She's still a baby, so she's just beginning her training journey, and that's perfectly normal! With patience, consistency, and lots of positive reinforcement, this sweet girl is ready to learn.

The first step is completing our application. Once received, we'll review it to see if you and this little one may be a good match!
