***In order to alleviate the need to bring an animal into the shelter environment, The Anti-Cruelty Society has the Home-to-Home Shelter Bypass service to help people find new accommodations for their pets privately. These animals are not located in any of the Society's physical locations. If you are interested in adopting this animal, please do NOT click the Adopt Me button and instead reach out to the current owner directly via the email provided in the profile. As this is a Home-to-Home animal you are not required to fill out an Anti-Cruelty Society adoption application form. ***Blossom is a three-year-old female Australian Shepherd around 43 pounds. Her birthday is 2/16/2021. I got her from a reputable breeder in southern Illinois. Unfortunately, solely due to some unforeseen home issues I have to rehome her. She will truly be your best friend as she is mine. Blossom has quite the personality, for better or for worse. She is fully house trained and whines at the door. It might take some getting used to for a couple days, but she shouldn't really have any accidents after that. She has no bite history; however, she is very reactive. Because of this reactivity she barks a lot. She also does not like very small dogs or small children so I would recommend dogs her size, children over 7, and no cats or other small animals. She is not aggressive with other dogs, however if they are also reactive, she does not like that. So, if there were to be other dogs in the house, they would have to be calmer. She currently lives in a house with 2 other dogs. Both of which she gets along perfectly fine with. However, one of the other dogs and her got into a really bad fight, absolutely NO fault to blossom. This has made her kind of wary of big dogs as it was a Great Dane that bit her. She has no medical history and has always been in great health and up to date on vaccines. She is also on no dietary restrictions (she's very bad with food). She is quite the puller on walks for about the first 20 minutes or so but after that she walks very well, and I have even taken her on a few runs, and she does well with that also. I have no doubt with proper training and exercise she get rid of some of these habits as she is an extremely quick learner and just needs someone to keep up with her energy. Please reach out to athenamsd2020@gmail.com for more information.
If you have any questions or would like to adopt Blossom, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
