About Diamond Girl

Diamond Girl got her name from the unique diamond shape on her neck and perhaps a new favorite song. With her striking black and cream coloring, she resembles a border collie and possesses a charming mix of intelligence and affection. This lively puppy thrives in social settings, enjoying the company of her fellow dogs while occasionally stepping away to seek affection from her human companions. Her family background is an intriguing blend; her mom is mainly Australian Shepherd but also carries genes from Labrador, terrier, Rottweiler, and cocker spaniel. The identity of her dad remains a mystery, though some floppy-eared features may hint at German shepherd origins. Although her siblings will eventually grow to between 45 to 60 pounds, Diamond Girl stands out as one of the larger females in the litter. Having been socialized since birth, she arrived at the sanctuary shortly after being found. Her mother was sweet and friendly, but sadly abandoned with other dogs. Now, Diamond Girl is up to date on vaccinations, microchipped, and spayed. She'll need her rabies shot at 16 weeks. Fun fact: she might even respond better to her name if sung! Diamond Girl, bum, bum, you sure do shine. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
