My personality

Why I need a new home

Infant, young children or pregnancy

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Age: Approximately 6 years old

Breed: Border Collie mix

Weight: Approximately 50 lbs

Health: Up to date on all vaccinations and spayed

Training: Fully house and crate trained; knows lay down, stay, come, shake, and roll over (except when you have a treat, roll over becomes spinning in a circle because she's just too excited)

Personality: Sweet, silly, and full of personality

Activity Level: Active; she has trained with me for two half marathons and loves being outdoors, especially swimming, hiking, and camping. She is also okay with laying around outside, or inside, but definitely needs at least one walk a day.

Ideal Home: An adult-only home or one without small children (she snapped at my 1 year old daughter and bruised her face). Does best with male dogs.

She has the silliest personality and it guts us to rehome her, but it's not fair to keep her sequestered to avoid another incident with the baby.
