Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Allie is approx. 16 months old, is a cross between an Australian Shepherd/Sheepdog and is spayed and up to date on vaccines. She is sweet and friendly with all humans including little ones however being as she is still a young pup she gets excited and bowls the little ones over easily. She reminds me of a gangly teen with super long legs and no body to match.
She has such funky quirks that you have to laugh at her. When she comes up close to see you and you don’t pay attention quickly enough she will nuzzle you in the groin area and then give you a look. She sleeps in a dog bed by our and does very well for eight hours. She will sleep in a kennel but does fuss at the beginning. When you get up in the morning you need to let her go right away or she will have an accident. She is doing really well with potty training. We let her out every couple of hours just to be sure and praise her for doing a good potty.
She is learning to do agility and loves to run through the tunnel. Her favorite toy is a rubber ball. She also loves to play and run with other pups. With cats you need to correct her when she spies them. She does 1 minute sit/stays before she gets her breakfast and supper. Will go to a down/stay with a treat but you need to remind her not to get up. She knows the command “In the house”, she goes to her bed when she is told and she will also lift her paws to have them dried when they are wet. She has also been taught to wait before I open the door and she cannot leave until I leave first. Allie is fabulous in the car and loves to go for car rides. Her leash training still needs to be worked on but is much better in a harness.
She is still a little underweight but she does an extreme amount of running at our place.
