My story

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

✨ Meet Teresita

Female • Kelpie / Husky Mix • Born 7/17/2025 • ~20 pounds • Not Spayed Yet

Teresita is a bright, beautiful young pup with a heart as big as her potential. At just five months old, she’s in that magical stage of puppyhood where curiosity, playfulness, and affection all blend together. She’s still growing — not just in size, but in confidence, learning, and love — and she’s ready for a family who will guide her gently as she discovers the world.

Personality

Teresita is joyful, smart, and full of life. She has a playful spirit and an eager-to-learn mind, paired with a sweet, affectionate side that loves human connection. Expect happy wiggles, puppy zoomies, and those quiet moments when she curls up nearby after a busy day. She thrives on interaction and will do best with people who enjoy engaging with their dog and helping her grow into her best self.

Breed Info (Kelpie / Husky Mix)

This wonderful mix often brings together:

  • High intelligence and problem-solving skills

  • Energetic, athletic builds

  • Loyal, people-oriented personalities

  • A need for both physical activity and mental stimulation

Teresita will benefit from continued training, enrichment, and an active, loving home.

Owner Responsibilities

Teresita’s future family should be prepared to:

  • Continue puppy training and socialization

  • Provide daily exercise and mental enrichment

  • Establish routines, structure, and positive guidance

  • Commit to spay surgery when age-appropriate

  • Maintain consistent veterinary care

Even though Teresita is healthy, adopters should take her to their own veterinarian as soon as possible after adoption.

Things to Consider Before Adopting

  • Puppies require time, patience, and supervision

  • Training is ongoing and essential

  • Confirm landlord or HOA approval, including breed and size policies

  • Consider your daily schedule, energy level, and long-term plans

  • A dog is a lifetime commitment, not just a puppy phase

The 3-3-3 Rule

The first 3 days help Teresita decompress, the first 3 weeks help her learn your routine, and the first 3 months are when trust deepens and she truly understands she’s home.

✨ Why Teresita Will Be a Great Addition

Teresita has the kind of joyful spirit that fills a home with laughter, movement, and love. With the right guidance, she will grow into a loyal, intelligent companion who will walk beside you through life’s adventures. If you’re ready to invest your time, heart, and patience, Teresita will repay you with unconditional love for years to come.

More about this rescue

We are dedicated to saving dogs from high kill shelters, strays, owner surrenders and hoarders. We have been saving animals since December 2016. We hold weekly adoption events at various pet stores and pet expos. We hire dog walkers to walk our dogs and we have volunteers who help us weekly. Many of our dogs go to boarding and training to become adoptable and work on their behavioral issues. All our dogs are assessed to find a great family match.

All dogs receive all necessary medical attention and all dogs are vetted.
