Story
Meet Thistle! 🐾
Thistle is a 4-month-old Border Collie mix (best guess) weighing 17 lbs. This sweet and playful girl has the perfect mix of puppy fun and affectionate cuddles.
Thistle loves following her people around, snuggling on the couch, and playing in the yard with other dogs. She especially enjoys chasing a ball, exploring outside, and digging through the toy bin to find her favorite soft toys and Nylabones.
She has a medium energy level and would love a home where she can play, learn, and be included in family life. A fenced yard would be wonderful, but not required. She would likely do great with another playful dog, though she could also be happy as an only dog with plenty of attention.
Thistle is crate trained and sleeps through the night. She is working on house training and making progress every day. She already knows sit, comes when called, and is a very smart puppy who learns quickly.
She is great with other dogs, loves meeting new people, and has done well with elementary-aged children and older. She has not been around cats in foster care, but may do well with a dog-friendly cat.
Thistle was found as a stray and came into rescue underweight, but she is thriving now and gaining weight beautifully with proper nutrition and care.
If you’re looking for a smart, loving, playful puppy to grow with your family, Thistle may be the perfect match!
