About Shelby

** A VERY GENEROUS DONOR IS SPONSORING $175 OF SHELBY'S ADOPTION FEE, ALONG WITH THE FEES OF HER LITTERMATES, TO REDUCE THEIR ADOPTION FEES TO $300 IN HOPES THEY'LL FIND THEIR FOREVER FAMILIES SOON!** Are you ready to add some serious fun and frolic to your life? Well, say hello to Shelby, the super-pup with enough energy and curiosity to power a small town! This playful girl is a bundle of joy, always up for an adventure and ready to explore. With her athletic build and boundless enthusiasm, she's a real go-getter who will keep you on your toes and bring a smile to your face. Shelby's a social gal who loves making friends with every human and canine she meets! She projects a significant presence and will be the life, soul, and sunshine of your household. But don't be fooled by her playful nature, this girl is also smart as a whip and always eager to please. She has been growing up in foster care with her four littermates, giving her a good head start in life. She is now ready and anxious to meet her forever family. Approaching 7 months old and weighing almost 50 pounds, she'll be a larger dog ( 75+ pounds) when mature. A DNA test performed on two littermates identifies their breed mix as 35% Bluetick Coonhound, 27%. German Shepherd, 23% Husky, 15% Staffordshire Terrier. She's coming along very well with her crate training and housetraining; however, she's still a pup who is still learning. Potential guardians should expect and be prepared to put in a little work and polish some basic training and obedience. Shelby is a dog of heart and spirit, curious about the world around her and always up for new experiences. She'll make a phenomenal and steadfast companion for an active family!
