Cleopatra is a beautiful playful 1 year old Husky and Australian Shepherd mix. She has been fixed and all her shots are up to date.

I have a fenced in back yard for my dogs as well. Cleopatra will need space to run and play. She has never bitten anyone. If you have any other questions I will be happy to answer them. Thank you.
