Izzy - Shepherd and Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Lewisville, Texas
IZZY
Shepherd, Mixed Breed
🇺🇸
Lewisville, Texas
July 9th
female, medium, baby
DESCRIPTION
Izzy is a three month old, 10 lb Shepherd mix.
Breed mix is just a guess since Izzy and her sister May were dumped outside the Sheriff's office, and then made their way to Humane Tomorrow. We are guessing she may not weigh more than 40 lbs when full grown.
Izzy is now thriving in her foster home. She plays hard but LOVES to cuddle. She can entertain herself. Foster family will catch her playing "fetch" by herself, which is really cute.
Izzy is good about going potty outside but will need continued training.
Izzy is in the puppy "mouthy" play phase, and she has sharp puppy teeth, so she should not go to a home with young kids. However, she loves people and other dogs and is a very happy girl.
Please submit your application, and an adoption counselor will contact you.
ABOUT: MIXED BREED DOG BREED
The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. 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.
The shepherd dog breed encompasses a versatile group known for their intelligence, loyalty, and strong work ethic. With a heritage deeply rooted in herding and protecting livestock, shepherds excel at various tasks ranging from obedience and agility competitions to search and rescue missions. Their protective nature makes them excellent family pets, offering unwavering devotion and a natural instinct to watch over and care for their loved ones. In addition to their remarkable abilities, shepherds are often characterized by their distinctive appearance, including a sturdy build, alert expression, and a signature double coat that provides insulation and protection in various climates.
