Meet Sapphire š
Australian Shepherd Mix | ~10 months old (estimated) | 39 lbs
Sapphire is the kind of dog that quietly sneaks her way into your routine and suddenly you realize you havenāt gone to the bathroom alone in three days. Velcro dog status: achieved. She LOVES her people and is happiest curled up next to you, following you around the house, or doing her signature full body butt wiggle when you tell her sheās pretty (which is often because⦠look at her).
Sheās affectionate, gentle, playful without being over the top, and has a really sweet calmness about her. Sapphire enjoys playing with other dogs, relaxing nearby while you work or watch TV, and soaking up all the snuggles she can get. She can be a little shy at first, but once she settles in, sheās incredibly loving and loyal. Truly the best mix of cuddle bug and playful companion.
Sapphire walks well on leash, is potty trained, good with kids, and enjoys other dogs. Sheād do great in a home looking for a sweet shadow with a soft heart and excellent couch cuddling skills.
Sapphire came to us from a Central Texas shelter alongside her mom and siblings after they were all mysteriously āfoundā together and surrendered. Since the whole group had docked tails, we suspect they may have come from a backyard breeding situation. Thankfully, multiple Texas Aussie rescues stepped in so every dog made it out safely ā¤ļø
We arenāt totally sure if Sapphire was the mom of the group or just an older puppy herself, but one thing is certain: sheās very ready for a fresh start and a family of her own.
