Alessia - Shepherd and Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Buffalo, Minnesota

Location: Lakeville, MN

Alessia is the sweetest girl you will ever meet! She is great with other dogs and cats. She loves to go on walks and is getting better on the leash every day. She is also very agile.

She is a very quiet girl and I don't think I have ever heard her bark. She is very gentle when taking treats from your hand. She will let you touch her food bowl and does not resource guard.

Alessia is also loyal and loves to be where she can see you at all times. She is kennel trained, but potty training is still a work-in-progress.

*Originated from: South Dakota Reservation.

While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
