About Juniper

Juniper is looking for her perfect match. This happy and playful girl, just over 2 years old, weighs around 20 lbs and is a great companion for anyone who loves the outdoors. A combination of Corgi and Australian Cattle Dog, she thrives with an active family and needs someone familiar with herding breeds. She’s successfully house trained, walks beautifully on a leash, and is friendly with people. Her foster family describes her as sweet, funny, and full of cuddles. Juniper enjoys hikes but is just as happy snuggling on the couch with her humans. She plays well with her foster dog buddy, is respectful of the older dog in the home, and tends to ignore the resident cats. While Juniper may take a bit to warm up to new faces, she quickly becomes a love bug once she does. She gets excited meeting other dogs during her walks, but her foster is helping her manage those impulses. For her new family, there's a complimentary training session at Huffman K9 Obedience, giving them a chance to learn more about her skills. Adoption is prioritized for families with older children who enjoy playing and engaging with her. Juniper is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. Her adoption donation is $375, which helps support her transition to a loving home. Ready to find your new best friend? Apply today!
