Gretchen
Gretchen is a gorgeous blue merle beauty with a stunning tricolor coat that showcases all the classic Miniature Australian Shepherd charm in one petite package. Already microchipped and raised with thoughtful daily handling and socialization, she's been introduced to children and other dogs to help her grow into a confident, well-rounded companion. Her breed is known for remarkable intelligence and unwavering loyalty, making her a perfect fit for families who enjoy outdoor adventures, engaging training sessions, or cozy evenings curled up on the couch. This spunky young pup is still growing and ready to bring her devoted heart and bright personality straight to your home. Don't let this bright-eyed sweetheart slip away—welcome Gretchen into your family today!
***Dogs may change color naturally as they mature due to many factors such as genetics, hair type, losing puppy fur and changing to the adult coat, pigmentation, hormonal changes, seasonal changes, shaving, etc. Color changes are expected and can occur quickly and at any time. We cannot guarantee a dog's permanent coat color for these reasons.
