About Diamond

Diamond is a lovely medium-sized Australian Cattle Dog and Poodle mix who has just arrived at the shelter after her owner could no longer care for her. While some history is available, our staff will assess her behavior in the coming days to better understand her needs and character. Although she has spent time in a home and might have some training, we can’t ensure that her prior habits will carry over. While Diamond is pending evaluations and interactions with other animals, she’s eager to find her forever home. Family members, including any children or pets, are encouraged to meet her to see if they're a good fit. We're hoping for same-day adoptions whenever possible so that she can settle into a loving environment quickly. With her adoption fee sponsored, this is a wonderful opportunity to welcome her into your life. Are you ready to make a connection with Diamond?
