My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Mabel is a friendly and enjoyable girl who loves her people but also likes to play and adventure. She has been well socialized and enjoys people and other dogs. She is now completely comfortable living in a house, being on a couch, and snuggling in for a movie. She plays with the other dog in the house and has come into her own and shows her "Aussie" silliness often. She still loves being outside and going for runs and being with her people. She is house trained and likes to follow her people around the house. Mabel smiles often and relaxes sleeping by your feet while you work or read.

She is still learning all that there is to know about being in fenced in area and things like going for walks and crossing bridges or meeting with new unknown things, but she is intelligent and loving and wants to do everything with her energy and her mind. Mabel has good recall and comes back excitedly when called. She is going to be an incredible companion while hiking and camping, or going for runs! She is excited to meet everyone, but really wants to meet her forever!

More about this rescue

We are a dog rescue focused on the Pine Ridge and Rosebud Indian Reservations and the nearby border towns. At LightShine Canine we bring the heart of the Lakota and the needs of the dogs together. Our goal is to rescue stray, abandoned, injured or abused dogs on the Pine Ridge Reservation with the help of Lakota youth and adults working on sobriety...and to find these dogs forever homes. Our adoption fees help us continue to do this and to provide community outreach to Tribal members in the form of dog food, vaccines and spay/neuter. Our dog rescue work program is geared to ensure that the dogs we rescue and the Lakota who assist us with this dream are changed forever.
