Meet Artemis, a four year old Border Collie/Aussie mix weighing under 50 pounds.

Just like her namesake from Greek mythology, Artemis is full of curiosity, grace, and a love for adventure. This fluffy girl is happiest when she's out exploring the world on leash, taking in every sight and scent like a true huntress of fun.

Artemis is friendly, happy, and wonderfully silly, with adorable floppy ears that bounce along as she walks. She's done well meeting other dogs and enjoys their company, but she's just as content soaking up all the pets and attention she can get from her people.

Whether she's trotting beside you on an outdoor adventure or lounging around enjoying affection, Artemis brings joy wherever she goes. She's ready to leave the wild behind and find a forever home worthy of a goddess-could that be with you?

This pet is available for adoption on 11/18/2025 4:07 PM at the Yakima Humane Society adoption center. If you recognize this animal please contact the adoption center at 509-457-6854.
