My story

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

Meet Truffles 🍫🐾
Almost 4 years old • Female • Miniature Australian Shepherd

Truffles is a sweet, sensitive Mini Aussie who’s a little shy at first—but give her time, and you’ll see just how special she is. Almost 4 years old, she’s past the puppy stage and more on the thoughtful side, preferring calm moments and gentle introductions. She’s the kind of dog who blossoms once she feels safe and knows she can trust you.

Why Truffles is special:

Shy and soft-hearted, with a loving nature

Smart and observant (that Aussie brain is always working)

Will thrive in a patient, understanding home

Good to know:
🐾 We can dog-test and cat-test Truffles upon request—just ask!
🏷️ If an attribute tag isn’t listed, it doesn’t mean she doesn’t have that trait—it just means we haven’t had the chance to confirm it yet.

Truffles is looking for someone willing to go at her pace—and in return, she’ll give you quiet loyalty and a very full heart. 💗
