About Luna and Nyx
Meet Luna and Nyx, a delightful pair of five-year-old Australian Shepherds looking for a forever home together. Luna, the 25-pound black tri Mini Aussie, is thoughtful and reserved at first but warms up quickly, displaying her affectionate nature. She's the kind of dog to gently herd with a little heel nip, showcasing her unique Aussie personality. Just a heads-up: Luna has a love for water and drinks a bit too quickly, so pacing her intake is essential. Nyx, the 15-pound blue merle Toy Aussie, is the social butterfly in this duo. She adores everyone she meets, rolling over for belly rubs and showering you with kisses. Despite a past injury that left her with a rod in her leg, she keeps up with her sister without missing a beat. Both girls are fantastic with kids and have even helped raise a three-year-old. They’re gentle and respectful, and they share their home harmoniously with cats, playing and napping together. House trained, crate trained, and possessing excellent house manners, Luna and Nyx are ready to join in your family's activities. They enjoy outdoor playtime and have medium energy levels, needing some time outside each day. A securely fenced yard is preferred for Luna's adventurous spirit. Both dogs are eager to learn and know basic commands like "sit" and "stay," always motivated by treats. If you’re seeking two loyal companions who balance each other just right—Nyx's outgoing nature and Luna’s sweet demeanor—these girls are ready for a life full of adventure and love. Could your home be the perfect fit for this loving duo?
