About Skye

Skye is a spirited one-year-old Australian Shepherd and Cattle Dog mix in search of her forever home. She thrives on activity and needs a securely fenced yard where she can run and play to her heart's content. An active family is ideal, providing her with daily walks or a fellow dog buddy who can keep pace with her energetic spirit. Skye loves to engage in play, sometimes a bit too much, so her perfect playmate would be a dog around her size or larger who enjoys spirited fun and can help her learn canine etiquette. Though Skye's beginnings were tough—losing her mother as a puppy—she has developed a vibrant personality full of love and enthusiasm. She’s house-trained, crate-trained, and knows her basic commands, making her a quick learner. Skye has shown she can live harmoniously with dog-savvy cats and has been gentle around children, especially those familiar with herding breeds. This affectionate girl prefers to stay close to her humans, often leaning in for love while walking beside them. Skye is not just looking for any family; she wants one that appreciates her playful nature and is ready to embark on new adventures together.
