About Spring

Meet Spring, a sweet baby Australian Cattle Dog mix who's just two months old. She found her way to the rescue from a tough situation, living outdoors and burdened with ticks and fleas. Now in a safe foster home, she’s ready for her forever family. Spring has a short coat in a beautiful blend of white/cream and sable, perfect for cuddling. She’s not yet house trained, but with patience and guidance, she'll learn quickly. Like any puppy, she craves outdoor playtime; however, she does require safe outside containment as we do not support the use of invisible fencing. Spring's adoption process includes an application, vet references, a home visit, and a lifetime commitment. While her $350 adoption fee is currently waived, we ensure all our dogs are vaccinated, spayed or neutered, and microchipped before adoption. If you're ready to welcome this little bundle of joy into your life, make sure to apply and help Spring start her new journey.
