Border Collie Beagle

Female, Senior
Akron, OH
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Luna was abused and thrown on the street, we have attempted to find her multiple homes and in the end she always returned to us. We can no longer keep her with us, she is really not living her best life with us and deserves much better than we can give her. She would do best as the only dog in the house with no other pets or young wild kids. She may bite as she has trust issues which is understandable given the life she has had so far but with love and understanding, she is a great dog. She does have a fear of storms and fireworks where she won't go outside to use the bathroom and she usually waits it out without accidents in the house as long as she is in a crate. She needs to be inside a crate to feel safe also during those times she is scared.

Story
I got Benji when I was in a relationship but now since I’m alone and I work full time he does not get the attention he needs. He’s very active and can start to act out when he doesn’t receive enough attention, mostly chewing things up. He does go to doggy daycare so I know he works well with other dogs. He is 4 years old, fixed, and up to date on all his shots. He’s potty trained and never has any accidents. He’s a very sweet dog and loves to give kisses. I just feel like he deserves a more present home environment.

Story
TEDDY 5YRS 33LBS MALE AUS CATTLE DOG LISA 3YR 21 LBS FEMALE MIX MUST HAVE ACD/HERDING BREED EXPERIENCE BONDED PAIR-Ever wanted a dog for you and a dog for your sig other but were afraid of clashing personalities? Well, not here because these two love each other, a LOT, so at least you know they get along perfectly and there is one for each of you. 2x the love!!!!!!!!!!!!! (And man, are they CUTE!) They travel often in the car with me for over an hour at a time - they do ride crated. Load up easy and ride quietly- unless we go through a drive through then Lisa has opinions about what she wants too. She likes to play ball, but not as intense as Teddy and will just let him get it and go find something else to do. They play and wrestle with each other and other dogs. Not overly rough but will get on ground with each other. They love to run laps in the yard chasing each other. They leave my uninterested dogs alone, as there is always someone else to play with. Lisa did not get along with my 1 male foster - just a little 10 pounder . Not sure who to started the war, but I did not leave them loose with each other * no actual fight/injury/contact ever occured. There was alot of noise 1 time, and they would grumble at each other when passing by each other's crates/run at work. Teddy is pretty easy going but doesn't like to be corrected. He will get bossy -verbal and pin someone who tries to But a sharp HEY from me and he will stop and walk away * never has been a fight or injury. Loves to play fetch and the other dogs do not challenge him to get the ball away from him. He would definitely destroy a stuffed toy if given the chance. They both love to chew on antlers/ nylabones/Benebone etc Teddy is a super cuddler and happy to hang on the couch or bed. Lisa loves attention too but takes a bit more to settle down at first. Both settle quickly and Quietly in a crate. They are both jumpers and when seeking attention. They have gotten better, but would need to be reminded of their manners going forward. We do not require a fenced BUT they would need a secure area to be able to run in and burn off energy weekly. Crate trained and housebroken   This animal is up to date on all shots, dewormed, and spayed/neutered. They have been heartworm tested (negative) and on prevention.  The adoption fee is $400.00 for the pair.
