A FENCED YARD, PREVIOUS SHELTIE EXPERIENCE AND A FABULOUS HOME VISIT AND REFERENCE FROM YOUR VETERINARIAN.
Chrissy (for Chrysanthemum) is a 14 month old spayed female tricolored Sheltie. At 16#, she is petite but has excellent confirmation. She is slightly braver than her other Sheltie pals and seems to be a natural leader. We have watched her flying with her feet barely touching the ground and then zooming over the other dogs with no effort at all. Agility prospect? Maybe.
Chrissy came to RMCSR as an undersocialized kennel dog less than 2 weeks ago. It is amazing how quickly she has picked up on the routine in her foster home. She is making good progress on the whole potty issue, which is definitely a plus. We have not begun any obedience training yet. But she will now make good eye contact with me and a ton of handling and baby talk should bring her around in short order. It will be awesome to watch her come into her own.
