Description

Meet Stormy – 35 Pounds of Sunshine Disguised as WeatherDon't let the name fool you—Stormy is less `severe weather warning` and more `partly cloudy with a 100% chance of cuddles.`This young Australian Shepherd is a sweet, playful girl who has one very important life goal: becoming a lap dog. Never mind that she's 35 pounds. Stormy firmly believes if she can fit one paw on your lap, the rest of her belongs there too.Stormy enjoys exploring, zooming around, and carrying plush toys like treasured possessions. On hot days, she's happy to cool off with a dip in the pool, and after she's had a little fun, she's ready to stretch out in the shade and supervise the world from a comfortable spot.She's a medium-energy girl who knows sit, takes treats gently, and is always ready for affection. She can be a little shy when meeting new people, but it doesn't take long for her sweet personality to shine through.Stormy has shown friendly interest in other dogs through the fence, and her wiggly, social nature suggests she'd enjoy canine friends. A meet-and-greet is recommended to help ensure a good match.Like many young Aussies, Stormy still has a bit of puppy software running in her system. Her previous home reported some typical youthful behaviors, so she'll benefit from continued training, exercise, and enrichment to help her become the best version of herself.If you're looking for a dog who can be your adventure buddy, pool companion, toy collector, couch snuggler, and personal shadow all in one adorable package, Stormy is ready to blow into your life—in the nicest way possible.
