  Meet Sunny! ❤️ A Bright Little Kelpie Terrier Mix Ready to Fill Your Life with Love! Breed: Australian Kelpie Terrier Mix Gender: Female DOB: 07/01/2026 Age: 4 Months Weight: 22 lbs — Still Growing Good With: Dogs ✔️ | Kids ✔️ | Cats: Unknown Personality: Typical Puppy Personality — Curious, Playful, and Learning Medical: First Combination Puppy Vaccine Administered ✔️ | Dewormed ✔️ | Spay Status: Not Confirmed ❤️ Personality & Breed Information Meet Sunny, an adorable 4-month-old Australian Kelpie Terrier mix weighing approximately 22 pounds! With a name as cheerful as hers, Sunny is ready to bring a little sunshine into the life of a family who will love and cherish her forever. At four months old, Sunny is still discovering the world and developing her unique personality. She has plenty of growing to do, and her future family will have the wonderful opportunity to guide her through puppyhood and watch her blossom into a confident adult companion. About the Kelpie Terrier Mix Sunny's breed combination brings together two intelligent, active working-dog backgrounds. Australian Kelpies are known for their athleticism, loyalty, intelligence, and strong herding instincts. Terriers are often curious, spirited, determined, and enthusiastic about exploring their surroundings. As a Kelpie Terrier mix, Sunny may inherit characteristics such as: Intelligent and Quick to Learn: Likely to benefit from engaging, reward-based training. Active and Athletic: May enjoy outdoor adventures, daily walks, and interactive games. Loyal and Affectionate: Both breed groups can develop strong bonds with their families. Curious and Alert: May enjoy investigating new environments and interesting scents. Independent and Determined: Consistent guidance will help channel her natural instincts. Herding and Chasing Instincts: May show interest in chasing moving objects or animals. Because Sunny is a mixed breed, her individual temperament, adult size, and energy level may vary. Sunny's Ideal Home Sunny would be a promising match for an active family prepared to raise an intelligent, growing puppy. At 22 pounds already, she may develop into a medium or larger adult dog, although her final size cannot be predicted with certainty. Her ideal family will enjoy spending time outdoors, providing mental enrichment, and helping her develop good manners. Sunny is considered suitable for homes with other dogs and children, with proper introductions and supervision. Her compatibility with cats is currently unknown. Training, Adjustment & What to Expect Sunny is at an important age for learning household routines, building confidence, and developing positive habits. Her future family should be prepared to work on house training, leash manners, basic commands, appropriate chewing, and socialization. Rescue puppies may arrive with little or no formal training, so consistent positive reinforcement is essential. Because of her Kelpie Terrier heritage, Sunny may enjoy activities that challenge both her mind and body. Puzzle toys, scent games, short obedience sessions, and interactive play are excellent ways to keep a growing puppy engaged. Exercise should remain appropriate for her age and developing joints. Long-distance running and repetitive high-impact activities should wait until she is physically mature. Since Sunny has received only her first reported combination vaccine, she should avoid dog parks and other high-risk public dog areas until her veterinarian confirms she is adequately protected. The 3-3-3 Rule Every rescue dog needs time to adjust: 3 Days: Decompress and begin feeling safe. 3 Weeks: Learn household routines and develop confidence. 3 Months: Build trust and become comfortable with the family. These are flexible guidelines, not deadlines. Patience, structure, and positive experiences will help Sunny transition into her new home. Owner Responsibilities & Veterinary Care Sunny has received her first combination puppy vaccination and deworming treatment. Her vaccination series is still in progress. Her adopter must arrange additional puppy vaccinations and boosters, along with routine parasite prevention, according to veterinary recommendations. Her spay status has not been confirmed. If she has not been spayed, her adopter will need to follow the rescue's sterilization requirements and veterinary guidance. Kelpie Terrier Health Considerations Australian Kelpies and some Terrier breeds may have inherited predispositions to conditions such as hip dysplasia, certain eye disorders, and joint problems. These are general breed-related considerations, not diagnosed conditions in Sunny. A balanced puppy diet, healthy weight management, appropriate exercise, and regular veterinary examinations will help support her development. Sunny will also need routine grooming, dental care, nail trimming, and a safe, secure environment. As she matures, her working-breed background may mean she needs substantial daily exercise and mental stimulation. Her family should be prepared to provide an active, enriching lifestyle throughout adulthood. Adopting Sunny means making a lifelong commitment to her health, training, safety, and happiness.

ake is looking for his forever home! Jake is a playful, energetic boy who loves having fun, but he also enjoys slowing down for some cuddles and attention. He has plenty of personality and is ready to find someone who understands him and can give him the right home. Jake can get along with other dogs, but he is a little particular about who he chooses as a friend. A meet-and-greet with any potential canine siblings would be important. One thing potential adopters need to know about Jake is that he does not like having his feet touched.Jake does have a bite history involving an incident where someone attempted to handle his feet. Because of this, his boundaries need to be understood and respected, and his adopter should be comfortable managing this behavior appropriately. Jake isn't looking for just any home—he's looking for the right home with someone willing to understand his quirks, respect his boundaries, and give him the love and structure he needs. If you think you could be Jake's person, reach out to the Rangely Animal Shelter to learn more and meet him!
