My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Tortell is a 1-year-old Australian Shepherd with a name as fun and unique as she is! Full of curiosity, energy, and Aussie smarts, she’s ready to bring some zest (and maybe a little organized chaos) into your home.

As a young dog, Tortell is still discovering the world and figuring out all the exciting things life has to offer. She’s active, alert, and ready to engage—whether it’s a game of fetch, exploring the backyard, or just showing off her flair for adventure.

Tortell would love:

A family who can match her energy and give her plenty of mental and physical enrichment

Time to play, explore, and learn new things

A home ready to help her grow into the confident, happy Aussie she’s destined to be

If you’re looking for a smart, energetic, playful companion with a dash of quirky charm, Tortell is ready to twirl into your heart. 🐶✨
