Story

Due to a downsize and relocation I will be unable to take him with me. I've been working on impulse control, recall, and when to heel. Some leash pulling. Loves to play with similar dogs, is still learning fetch/what to do with balls and other toys, likes to ride in the front seat, and is very energetic. May not be recommended for households with small children.

Delilah

Border Collie Shepherd (Unknown Type)

Female, Puppy

Berkeley, CA

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Delilah is a spunky, high energy 6 month old puppy. I rescued her from a shelter when she was 2 months old. We’ve provided her with an attentive and loving home and all needed vet care. She is healthy, smart and loving but needs to be in a more active home with experienced owners who can prevent her from developing bad habits and destructive behaviors. She appears to have strong working dog, herding dog, border collie traits (reactive to movement, high energy, athletic, nippy, mouthy). She needs someone who has strong, consistent training skills and who can give her a “job” or at minimum, lots of active adventures.

Spirited, snuggly, and oh-so-sweet, Pepita wants nothing more than to be your loyal companion through all of life's adventures. She's still getting acquainted with the sights and sounds of the world, so she'll need a patient partner to help her learn that new things aren't scary, just... well, new! Once she knows her people, Pepita bonds strongly and will become your loyal little shadow, eager to join in whatever your day brings. With a little patience and a bit of confidence-building, this Pepita is sure to blossom into the most wonderful companion.
