At just two and a half years old, Cici is ready to start a new chapter in life. Weighing in at about fifty-two pounds, she has the build of a strong, athletic dog but the heart of a gentle friend. Her personality shines through in ways that make her stand out as this week’s featured adoptable pet.
Cici has experience living alongside other dogs and has shown that she can adapt well in a household with canine companions. She thrives with respectful dogs who understand boundaries, and she is not afraid to set the tone with those who are less polite. With playful dogs, she matches their energy, often engaging in spirited games and vocal exchanges that bring out her lively side. On walks, Cici demonstrates good leash manners, making her a pleasant companion for those who enjoy daily strolls. She is also showing signs that she is well on her way to being fully house-trained, which adds to her appeal as a family-ready pet.
While her playful nature makes her a joy with dogs and her past experiences prove she can coexist with cats, Cici is not suitable for life around livestock. Still, her record with other household pets paints a promising picture for families with both dogs and cats. Beyond her animal interactions, Cici is affectionate with people. She has a way of leaning into her human companions, seeking affection and sometimes locking eyes with a soulful look that makes it hard to resist offering her a treat.
Her health needs are all current and accounted for. Cici has been spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and kept up to date on parasite prevention. She is in excellent shape and ready for immediate adoption. At an adoption fee of $175, she represents not just a chance at companionship but also an opportunity to give a loving dog the forever home she deserves.
Cici’s personality blends affection, playfulness, athleticism, and intelligence. She is adaptable, gentle, and eager to bond with people who will give her the attention and love she craves. Her short coat makes her easy to maintain, and her active yet manageable size makes her suitable for a wide variety of households, from active singles to families seeking a dog that can keep up with playtime but also settle in for calm evenings at home.
For those interested in meeting Cici, the Josephine County Animal Shelter encourages calling ahead to check her availability. Walk-ins are welcome, but because animals may sometimes be offsite, appointments are highly recommended to ensure the best chance of connecting with her.

Cici’s story is one of potential waiting to be realized. She has the health, the temperament, and the heart to become someone’s beloved companion. What she needs now is a home where her spirit can flourish and her loyalty can shine. For the right family, Cici may just be the missing piece that turns a house into a home.
