Miniature Pinscher and Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption in Austin, Texas

Little Shirley was found as a stray in a rural town and taken to a shelter we help. We had to rescue her quickly, because the shelter was full. She has been in our care for 3 weeks, and she has shown us that she is a good girl that just needed a chance. Shirley has completed her veterinary care, and now she’s ready for her forever home!

Shirley is an affectionate puppy and she loves to be held. She is treat motivated, and learning new things. She gets along with other dogs of all ages and sizes, and she also cat friendly.

We think Shirley is a small breed since she only weighs 10 pounds and is 3 months old. She is spayed, up to date on all her vaccinations, microchipped, and heartworm negative. If you're looking for a cuddly girl to add to your family, we hope you’ll choose Shirley.

Shirley can arrive in Homestead, Pennsylvania on May 9. If you are interested in adopting, please fill out the application found here: https://throwadogabone.org/adopt.
