About Awesome Courage Young

Awesome Courage is a petite, young Shepherd mix with a gentle heart, striking golden, brown, and black coat, and medium-length fur. She arrived recently from the Stanislaus shelter after overcoming a shy, shut-down start—slowly blossoming into an affectionate, playful companion with the help of a fellow dog. Courage thrives around other friendly dogs, loves being part of a social scene, and is eager for a home where she can play in a yard, go hiking, camping, or enjoy the beach. Volunteers and her rescue quickly recognized her intelligence, sweetness, and the goofy, loyal spirit she brings to any family or dog pack. Courage is house trained, spayed, microchipped, and her vaccinations are current. She fits well with households that want an active, loving friend and can match her gentle energy. If you’re searching for a dog who will be an incredible companion for both humans and other dogs, Courage is ready for her next adventure. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
