My story

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

FENCED YARD REQUIRED
https://www.collierescue.org/dogs/58

Meet Libby, a 3-year-old Rough Collie with a unique sable merle coat and captivating mismatched eyes. This playful girl is looking for a loving cat-free home where she can thrive alongside respectful children and other dogs!
Libby is a sweet and intelligent girl who enjoys being the center of attention, especially from her favorite humans. With a playful spirit and a knack for training, she responds well to positive reinforcement, particularly when treats like hot dogs or string cheese are involved. Although she can be a bit stubborn, her charming personality shines through as she engages with her foster family. Libby is fully house-trained and crate-trained, making her an ideal companion for families with children aged 5 and up. Libby requires a secure yard and would thrive in a single-family home or larger space. While she's friendly with other dogs, she needs to be in a cat-free environment due to her strong prey drive. Her foster family is currently working on her vocalization and reactivity to loud noises. With the right training and love, Libby is sure to become a cherished member of her forever family.
