Meet Callie - The Playful Backyard Explorer
Callie is a 1-year-old Shepherd mix who's equal parts affectionate and adventurous. With a soft spot for sunny backyard play and toy time, she's a happy, energetic girl who's ready to find her forever home.
She currently lives with dogs of all sizes and gets along great with everyone-whether it's a senior pup who wants to nap or a young friend who's ready to romp. Callie plays well with others, loves to run around outside, and settles down nicely when it's time to relax.
While she's mostly house-trained, she's still working on perfecting her routine. She isn't crated in her foster home and does well with supervision, though she can get into mischief if left alone for too long without something to keep her busy. She prefers chewing on her own toys but needs reminders when something tempting is nearby.
Some things to know about Callie:

Her foster says: "She's friendly, curious, and loves running around the yard. She plays great with our dogs and is always ready for a walk or a good cuddle after."
Callie's ideal home would have another dog to play with, a secure yard for her to explore, and a family who's ready to guide her through young-dog life with patience, consistency, and lots of love. She's eager to learn and would be a great match for first-time dog owners or active individuals looking for a fun, affectionate companion.
