Fern is a special needs dog who deserves a calm, loving environment where she can learn to trust. Coming from a hoarding situation, Fern has experienced a lot and needs a secure space with a privacy fence to feel safe. She's a small blend of Australian Shepherd and Chihuahua, weighing about 20 pounds. After giving birth and raising her four puppies in a foster home, it's now Fern's turn to find her forever home. She's house trained, gets along well with other dogs, and is ready for a fresh start. If you feel that you can provide the nurturing environment she needs, consider bringing Fern into your family.
