About Dani California

Dani California is a high-energy, young Shepherd/Hound mix ready for an active home. She’s about 2.5 years old, weighs around 50 lbs, and is fully house and crate trained, though she isn’t suited for long periods in the crate—she’s just too energetic for that. Dani thrives when she has a young, playful canine companion and must have a securely fenced yard at least 6 feet tall since she can easily vault 4-foot fences. Her energy means she isn’t the best fit for young children, but she may enjoy older, dog-savvy kids. Dani loves other dogs and is eager to meet them, but she’s wary of meeting new people and needs several introductions before trusting someone. Her early rough start left her reactive with strangers, so patience and slow introductions are a must. She’s impressively smart and very trainable in the right hands. Her adoption includes up-to-date vaccines, a microchip, preventatives, and she’s already spayed. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
