This puppy is in Tennessee. Adoption Donation $250 if picked up in TN, $325 plus transport fee for out-of-state adoptions.
Say hello to Sydney, a 3.5-month-old, 20 pound German Shepherd / Australiand Shepherd mix who's all heart with three legs! This playful pup is ready to fill your home with love, laughter, and lots of wagging tails. Despite having an amputated rear leg and part of her tail, Sydney doesn't let anything slow her down. In fact, she runs better than she walks and has no problem keeping up with her four-legged friends. Sydney has a medium energy level and loves nothing more than playing with other dogs. Whether she's getting bowled over in a game of chase or splashing around in water, this little trooper is all in. She's also a fan of toys, chew sticks, and a good scratch behind the ears. Housetrained and crate trained, Sydney sleeps through the night and is learning commands like "sit" and "come." While she's still getting the hang of leash walking and car rides, her gentle, loving nature makes her a joy to have around. Sydney would thrive in almost any home, especially one that's mindful of keeping her at a healthy weight to support her single hind leg. If you're looking for a loyal, resilient, and playful companion, Sydney is your girl!

Prior to adoption, all canines and felines are spayed or neutered, have received their age appropriate vaccinations, have been de-wormed for common parasites, and have received treatment for prevention of fleas and ticks. All canines over the age of 6 months have been tested for heartworm. All canines are put on heartworm prevention as soon as possible - this means dogs as soon as they are tested negative. Puppies are put on prevention immediately. All felines, regardless of age, have been tested for Feline Leukemia/FIV. Each animal receives a health check by a licensed veterinarian prior to adoption.
