Description
Skye is a gorgeous, ice-blue eyed, Shepherd mix with a long cream and white coat. She is playful, friendly, quiet, and submissive.
Personality
Skye is a very sweet, low profile dog who doesn’t make any waves. She loves all other dogs and joining in when she sees them having too much fun for her to resist. She gives lots of kisses and LOVES to eat. Skye is independent and low maintenance and can always amuse herself. As playful and fun loving as she is outdoors, she still can be described as having lower energy when indoors. Skye responds well to affection, and loves to cuddle up with her doggy friends. She retreats to her crate on her own and loves to share it with her doggy friends laying against each other. She enjoys watching other dogs and people, and playing tag. She loves to run from person to person and pass between them in games.
Background
Skye was dumped near a farm on the outskirts of Houston with another male dog in March, 2023. The farmer who found them was threatening to shoot them so his granddaughter rescued them who lives in Cypress. They thought they had a rescue lined up for them, but it fell through, and in the meantime the male dog impregnanted both Skye and the daughter’s female white lab. Subsequently, two litters of 6 were born in May for a total of 12 puppies. They were able to find homes for 9 of 12 puppies, and a shelter took the father dog, but Skye and 3 remaining puppies were still technically homeless 6 months later. Family life became more complicated with the care of elderly parents and a neurodivergent son, so they became increasingly desperate to find homes for the remaining 4 dogs as the puppies got older. GNAR then took in Skye and Cowabunga in early November, once they lined up a foster home.
