About Topaz

Topaz is a lovely young dog who was found just south of Yale, SD. Sadly, no one came to claim her, but that just means she’s ready for a new family to love her. With stunning blue eyes and an energetic spirit, she might have some Husky in her, though we haven’t confirmed that through a DNA test yet. This girl is already spayed, vaccinated, and dewormed, and she’s on flea and tick prevention. Topaz has a medium energy level and enjoys the company of other dogs, though she can be a bit overwhelming during playtime. She’s playful and great with kids, but her excitement can lead to a few jumps, so she’s still mastering her manners. Topaz is house-trained and kennel-trained, making her a great companion. She loves to explore, so a secure, fenced yard is a must to keep her safe from busy roads. If you think you can provide her with the adventurous home she deserves, fill out an adoption application!
