Story
Birdie is a young adult female shepherd/boxer–type mix with a sweet, people-oriented temperament and a lot of potential in the right home. She is affectionate once comfortable, bonds quickly to calm and consistent adults, and clearly wants to engage and please her handler. Birdie is a high-energy dog who requires regular, purposeful exercise and mental engagement. She plays enthusiastically and can be a bit rough in her play style, which is appropriate for her energy level and breed mix. With continued training and structure, this should improve as she gains impulse control. She has shown no signs of aggression toward people, including children, but she is still developing body control and spatial awareness. Because of this, she would likely do best in a home with older, dog-savvy children who understand boundaries, rather than very young children who are at floor level. With supervision and training, she could do well in a family environment that understands active dogs. Birdie has made excellent progress with crate training and uses the crate well as a place to settle and relax. She is beginning to learn place work and basic obedience, and she has shown that she is a fast learner once she is comfortable and understands expectations. She responds best to calm, patient guidance and benefits from structure and consistency. She does not appear to be destructive or an anxious chewer; however, she enjoys appropriate chew toys and bones and settles well with them. Once the environment is calm, she is able to relax indoors near her people. Birdie’s response to cats is currently unknown. She has had limited exposure to other dogs; one brief introduction suggested she may be somewhat reactive, but not overtly aggressive. Slow, structured introductions would be recommended to assess compatibility with other dogs. Overall, Birdie is a kind, energetic dog who is trying hard and making progress. She would likely thrive in an active home with an experienced, patient handler who enjoys training, can provide consistent structure, and understands the needs of a young, high-energy dog Birdie is 2y old and 62 lbs. She is spayed, and her adoption includes a microchip with lifetime registration, 4dx SNAP heartworm test, DHLPP, Bordetella, and rabies and parasite control. Also included in the adoption are 30 days of Pet First Pet Insurance, a new lead and collar, and an adoption kit.
