Unknown breed / mixed (long coat) : : Female : : Senior : : Medium Double Merle Australian Shepherd
Orlandi and Scarlet are Double Merle Australian Shepherd puppies. What does Double Merle mean? It means that a breeder tried to mate two Merle Australian Shepherds which inevitably creates some offspring that are all white, deaf and blind. Orlandi and her sister Scarlet were thrown in a dumpster with their other sister Gucci because they were of no monetary value to the breeder. Luckily an Apache Junction animal care and control officer found the three pups and took them to safety. Paw Placement was able to step in and place them with some wonderful foster families until they were ready for adoption. Orlandi is a friendly and loving companion animal but she has special needs because of her blind and deaf conditions. Orlandi and Scarlet have been living in the same foster home and are very attached to each other. Orlandi is strong and active. Scarlet had a rough start but seems to be getting better each day. Both girls are learning touch training. Orlandi will come and sit on command, Scarlet will come. Her foster mom is waiting for her to get a little stronger before making her sit on command. As for potty training, they prefer to go outside if possible and will run to the door. They are both happy in their crate at night and will sleep through the night if they are together. Their foster mommy thinks it would be in their best interest to stay together if at all possible. Not only are they hard to separate but it is DEFINITELY easier with two than just one, they tend to keep each other occupied when you have something else going on and they have a really close bond. Orlandi loves car rides and will sit in her bag and chew her bones. Scarlet isn't such a huge fan but if she is with Gucci, she is okay. In a nutshell, they are both adorable, well behaved puppies. They definitely need, stability and to learn their forever home so they are comfortable, running and jumping. Orlandi is definitely a firecracker and is an, absolute goof ball. Scarlet is a bit more trepidatious but still loves to, play. She just needs more patience than Orlandi but is an absolute love, bug. Scarlet waits for the world to come to her and Orlandi waits for no, man.
