Cicada (fka Mira) is a beautiful female Husky mix puppy who was brought to the HSOV on March 6, 2024 along with her three siblings (Ember, Nani, and Odin) and her mother (Skye). They were also accompanied by a handsome male Plott Hound (Rocky). Cicada and her siblings were tiny 6-week old babies at that time. This little family was reportedly found in the Vincent, Ohio area at the Barlow Fairgrounds.
This little playgirl has a sleek black short smooth coat with brindle shading on her legs/paws, a patch of white on her chest, a long tail, and an adorable puppy face with with amber-colored eyes, a black button nose on her slender muzzle, and large erect ears.
Cicada and her sisters/brother were raised by their mother Skye in a quiet area of our shelter where they had their very own mini-apartment, and Skye was a good momma who knew when to discipline them and when to join in their silly puppy games to teach them to play and enjoy life.
Cicada has a sweet, affectionate disposition and a playful, outgoing personality.
These photos of Cicada were taken on April 23, 2024 when HSOV Volunteer Emma Dahlgren helped her with 'big girl' glamour pictures and a few fun-loving frivolous ones. This little lovebug has a personality that just won't quit (smile). Cicada weighed approximately 12-15 lbs that day and is still a growing girl..
