Story
Meet this beautiful baby girl Australian Kelpie mix, a little bundle of joy with a big heart and an even bigger future. Rescued from the shelter alongside her loving mom and four siblings, this sweet pup has already shown just how resilient and special she is. Born on November 4, 2025, she’s about 2 months old and truly the definition of happy-go-lucky. She’s sweet, smart, playful, and affectionate, and she absolutely loves everyone she meets. Her curious nature and bright eyes show just how eager she is to learn and explore the world. Like all puppies, she’s active and playful, and she’s already working on house training. She will thrive in a home that understands the needs of a young pup and is committed to ongoing training, socialization, and leash skills so she can grow into the amazing dog she’s meant to be. We expect she’ll be medium-sized, similar to her mom, who is about 45 pounds. Because she’s an energetic, growing puppy, she must have a safely fenced yard where she can play and burn off puppy energy. No apartments, condos, RVs, or mobile homes, please. Details at a glance: Female Australian Kelpie mix Born: November 4, 2025 Sweet, friendly, smart, playful Great with everyone Active and happy-go-lucky Working on house training Current on puppy vaccinations Vet checked, spayed, and microchipped Adoption fee: $480 (helps cover some of her medical expenses) This little girl is ready to bring joy, laughter, and unconditional love to a lucky family who will guide her through puppyhood and beyond. Contact: Carrie On Rescue Call or text: 480-603-7680 Email: carrieonrescuers@hotmail.com Adoption limited to Arizona only. If you’re ready for puppy kisses, playful energy, and a lifetime of love, she may be the perfect match for your family.
