About Shay

Shay is a 7-month-old female Husky/Shepherd mix with a playful spirit and a gentle streak of shyness. She’s always eager to explore—whether she’s trotting alongside you on new trails or chasing toys around your living room. Shay’s athletic side keeps her active, but she settles in just as easily for some quiet snuggle time. While affectionate and friendly, she thrives best around other playful dogs and absolutely needs a dog buddy in the home. Shay lights up when she’s in the company of other pups, and a stockade-fenced backyard will give her the safe space she craves for all her favorite antics. Patience will go a long way with Shay, as she’s smart but still working on her crate manners, housebreaking, and walks on leash. A little guidance and understanding will help her confidence keep growing. She’s spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and microchipped. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
