Meet Raya, a beautiful, 6 month old, Australian Shepherd/ German Shepherd mix with 1 blue eye. Raya is your typical puppy,…. energetic, clumsy, uses her mouth and huge paws to explore her world. She is 38 lbs plus and utd on shots. She has an outtie belly button that was probably an umbilical hernia at birth, but our vet says the abdominal wall has sealed over, and no intervention is necessary, but if wanted , can be repaired during spay. Raya is working hard on basic commands,…. sit, down, off, shake, and kennel.
Raya is mostly housebroken, but when playing sometimes waits too long and still has occasional accidents. A consistent routine and watchful eye will help her through this. She is very clean in her crate and will stay in it all night without a peep. Raya loves to romp and chase her foster siblings, and loves chew toys! The more the better! She is easily corrected if she finds something that she shouldn’t have, but loves to bring sticks and stones inside to shred. She is an expert at using the doggy door to go in and out to the fenced area. Raya has not been tested with cats.
Raya is a bit mouthy and uses her feet to let you know she wants your attention like any typical puppy. She is probably a bit much for small children due to her not realizing her size. Raya is great with our family but is suspicious of strangers and will retreat if approached. Once she warms up to you, it is play all day! Cuddles happen, but she is a rambunctious pup with better things to do until she is tired. We have gotten better with the brush and nails have been trimmed a few times, but puppy energy sometimes gets in the way. Raya is super smart and picks things up very quickly!
Anyone wanting a partner for obedience, or agility, or some kind of doggy sport, this girl would excel at anything you want to teach her! We are working on scheduling her spay, but if she is adopted before that, a deposit will be required which will be refunded with proof of spay. A small fee is also included for her microchip. Raya is being fostered in Rising Sun, MD.
