Story

Meet Pokeno! This beautiful little girl is an 4 month old female miniature Australian Shepherd, Dachshund mix. We estimate (not a guarantee) she will be about 25lbs when fully grown. She is fully vetted and crate trained already! She is great with toddlers and XL dogs - as well as everyone and everything else she meets!! She is super friendly and loves just about everyone and everything she meets. She loves to snuggle and wants to be with you at all times. She never turns down a good belly rub. She loves to play and is full of puppy energy. She would make a great addition to a family with an active lifestyle! She is currently located down South at our sister shelters and available for pre-adoption. We do transports to NJ once a month. She can't wait to find her forever home!
