Cindy - Terrier and Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Gainesville, Florida

I am a silly, playful girl who walks well on leash, loves to say hi to new people, and enjoys games of tag with other playful pups in shelter playgroups. I was injured before coming into the shelter, and have some orthopedic needs that need to be addressed- including a potential femoral head ostectomy, or FHO procedure.

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.
