About Greta

Greta is one of ten lively pups surrendered to PUP for rehoming. Living in a challenging environment, her mom made the tough decision to seek a better future for her puppies. While her mother resembles a scruffy terrier, the identity of the father is less clear, adding an element of mystery to her background. DNA testing on one of her siblings revealed that this crew is a fascinating mix, featuring breeds like Australian Cattle Dog, German Shepherd, Miniature American Shepherd, and more! With a blend so diverse, Greta is set to embrace a vibrant and energetic life. Expect a mid-sized dog, but be ready for surprises in her growth. Socialization is critical for Greta as she grows. Early interactions with various people, sounds, and dogs will shape her into a well-rounded companion. Activities like puppy play dates, outings to pet stores, and training classes will be essential and rewarding. She is vet-checked, vaccinated, and dewormed. While she’ll need two more vaccinations, her spay surgery can be covered by the adoption fee if done by six months at the PUP clinic. If you’re at least 21 and your household is prepared for the joys of puppyhood, reach out to PUP. Renters will need to confirm pet allowance with their landlord. Let’s find a loving home for Greta!
