At only a few months old, Noah was found wandering the streets with no one looking after her. Too young to be fending for herself, she spent her days searching for food, safety, and someone who would stop to help. Thankfully, kind rescuers brought her to safety before life on the streets could take away the carefree puppyhood she deserved. Today, Noah is healthy, happy, and ready to leave her difficult beginning behind. She has a bright, loving personality and greets every new day with excitement. Her tail is almost always wagging, and she's happiest when she's playing, exploring, or spending time with the people around her. Noah is an affectionate little girl who loves making new friends. She enjoys chasing toys, investigating everything with puppy curiosity, and soaking up every bit of love and attention she receives. After playtime, she's more than happy to curl up beside you for a cozy nap and some well-earned cuddles. As an Australian Kelpie / Manchester Terrier Mix, Noah is expected to grow into an intelligent, loyal, and energetic companion. Australian Kelpies are known for their eagerness to learn and athletic nature, while Manchester Terriers are playful, alert, and devoted to their families. With positive guidance, Noah has all the qualities to become a wonderful lifelong companion. Noah would thrive in a home that offers: Plenty of love and companionship Daily walks and supervised puppy playtime Positive reinforcement training Interactive toys and mental enrichment Continued socialization with people and other dogs A consistent daily routine A safe indoor home where she's treated as part of the family A lifetime of love, patience, and commitment Noah has already overcome more than any puppy should have to face. Now she's simply hoping for a family that will love her forever and give her the happy life she's always deserved. Training, Adjustment & What to Expect Like all puppies, Noah is still learning about the world around her. Her new family should expect normal puppy behaviors, including chewing, teething, house-training, and lots of curiosity as she explores everything around her. Starting training early will help Noah grow into a confident, well-mannered adult dog. She is eager to learn and will thrive with patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. Please remember the 3-3-3 Rule: 3 Days to decompress and begin feeling safe 3 Weeks to learn your household routine 3 Months to fully settle into family life Noah will benefit from: Positive reinforcement training House-training and consistent routines Daily exercise appropriate for her age Continued socialization with people, dogs, and new environments Mental stimulation through enrichment toys and interactive games Plenty of patience, encouragement, and affection With love and guidance, Noah will blossom into a confident, loyal companion who will bring happiness to her family for years to come. Owner Responsibilities & Veterinary Care Bringing home a puppy is a lifelong commitment that includes training, veterinary care, exercise, and companionship. As part of responsible pet ownership, Noah will need: Completion of her puppy vaccination schedule and routine wellness examinations Spaying when age-appropriate, following her veterinarian's recommendation Monthly flea, tick, heartworm, and parasite prevention A nutritious diet that supports healthy growth and development Daily physical exercise appropriate for her age Continued obedience training and socialization A safe, loving indoor home where she is treated as a cherished member of the family Because Noah is still growing, strenuous repetitive exercise and excessive jumping should be limited until her joints have fully developed. We recommend scheduling a wellness examination with your veterinarian shortly after adoption to establish care and ensure she continues to thrive.
