Story
Meet Winnie, a one-year-old Staffie/Border Collie mix weighing 33 pounds.Winnie is the kind of dog who makes people smile the moment she trots into a room, tail wagging, ready for fun, affection, or a full-speed zoomie session across the yard. Fun thing about her is a sibling of hers was actually DNA tested so we are fairly confident she has these two breeds in her (among others), although they are likely at different percentages than her sibling.Winnie was originally adopted from us as a puppy and was recently returned due to her chasing the family’s cat. Because of this, she will need a cat-free home or very careful, experienced management with small animals. She has a strong playful drive and may not be suited for homes with small pets.She is friendly, outgoing, and full of energy. Winnie LOVES to play, especially with other playful dogs, and she thrives in environments where she has appropriate outlets for her enthusiasm. Her zoomies are legendary, and she brings a fun, lighthearted energy wherever she goes.Like many young, active dogs, Winnie is still polishing her manners. She can be a bit mouthy when excited and will benefit from continued basic training and consistent guidance. The good news is she already has a strong foundation — she is potty trained and was crated at night in her previous home, showing she can adapt well to structure and routine.As a brindle beauty with a goofy underbite, Winnie is as striking as she is entertaining. She’ll do best in a home that appreciates her playful spirit, is ready to continue her training, and can give her the exercise and engagement she craves. With the right structure and outlets, Winnie has all the makings of a loyal, fun, and very loving companion.This pet is available for adoption on 5.8.26 at the Yakima Humane Society adoption center.
