Greyhound, Australian Shepherd
February 20th
female, medium, adult
DESCRIPTION
Dixie is a very sweet and gentle Greyhound/Australian shepherd mix. She will be 3 in July and is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on all vaccines. She is potty trained and kennel trained, off leash trained, and excellent on leash. She enjoys other dogs and would be happy to have a doggy sibling in her home. She is currently in a foster home with other dogs and children and does great with all. She is timid with new people and will likely take a few days to feel comfortable and adjust to her new home. She is incredibly well behaved; doesn’t chew up or get into things and is very quiet in the home and yard. She is very calm, but lives to get out and run on hikes. She would make an excellent hiking, walking, or running buddy. She is on daily medication and supplements for a nail disorder. These will be needed life long for Dixie, but only cost around $50 a month. Please contact her foster mom, Sarah at 913-948-2327, if you are interested in meeting Dixie.
Adoption fee will be discussed
