Meet Autumn — a bright, sensitive, and spirited 30-lb terrier mix looking for her perfect match!
Autumn is about a year old and was found as a stray, so life hasn’t always been easy for her. But underneath that tough start is a wonderfully sweet girl who bonds deeply once she feels safe. She thrives in a calm, low-traffic environment and is looking for an adult-only home where she can relax and continue to blossom.
This smart little terrier has great house manners — she’s very crate trained and reliably potty trained. She can be quite vocal (think expressive barking and whining), so she’ll do best with someone who doesn’t mind a chatty companion.
Autumn is generally dog-friendly and loves to play, but she can be food-aggressive and occasionally possessive of certain items. Because of this, her ideal home would include a submissive, easygoing dog and an adopter who can supervise interactions around food and high-value items. With these boundaries in place, she does beautifully. Out on walks, she has made great progress and is no longer reactive, making her an enjoyable walking buddy.
True to her terrier roots, Autumn is bold, curious, independent, and full of personality. With continued structure, patience, and positive reinforcement, she has so much potential to grow into an even more confident and well-balanced dog.
Autumn may take some time to settle in, but once she trusts you, she becomes a complete sweetheart. She’s waiting for someone who will give her the stability, kindness, and understanding she deserves.
If you’re looking for a loyal, quirky, intelligent companion — Autumn might be your girl. She is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and available for adoption now through Paws Across Pittsburgh, Springdale, PA KL# 16182.
