Sybbie aka Sybil: Not at shelter (Kendra)
Australian Shepherd / Mixed (long coat) · Adult (5 years 3 months) · Female · Small · Rustburg, VA
Notes from Friends of Campbell County Animal Control
Sybbie is a five year old mini-Australian Shepherd whose family added two babies after her arrival, and cannot handle the complexities of introducing a small dog to toddlers. She is spayed, and will be updated with her rabies vaccine before any meet and greets with new families. Sybbie will be stressed greatly at the shelter, but it will give us a chance to assess her needs, and see how she does with strangers. Sybbie is not the perfect pet for just anyone, but the things her family told us are typical for just about any dogs that have not been trained!
Positives: Very Hyper and a lot of Energy , Loves to Run , Loves Chew Toys , Friendly and Excited with Familiar Adults , Separation/ Crate Anxiety , Gets along well with dogs her size and smaller , Docile Personality , Loves Affection but Skittish at First
