Meet Fern – The Sweetest, Silliest Shepherd Mix!

Fern was born around 10/25/24 and is around 21# as of 3/15/25.  She is a shepherd mix with the perfect balance of sweetness, playfulness, and personality! This little girl is potty trained, sleeps through the night, and even puts herself to bed—what a smart pup! She’s crate-trained and happily settles in when left alone, especially if there’s a frozen peanut butter treat involved.

Fern is the ultimate velcro dog—if you’re looking for a loyal companion who always wants to be near (or on) you, she’s your girl! She’s even “helpful” during shower time, holding the towel and making sure the floor is nice and dry.

She’s doing well on a leash and working on her manners when excited (like jumping up), but she’s a great listener and eager to learn. She’s curious, confident, and not easily scared. Fern gets along with cats—though she knows which ones to play with and which ones to avoid!

Oh, and balls are LIFE for Fern! ❤️ She loves to play and will keep you entertained with her goofy antics.

If you’re looking for a loving, fun, and loyal companion, Fern is ready to steal your heart! ♥️
