Female Dog, Australian Shepherd
Australian Shepherd / Border Collie / Mixed
Description:
Riata is the happiest and sweetest girl. She and her sister were on the EU list in an overcrowded NM shelter. She loves to go on walks and explore everything. Riata is approx 14 mos, 34#, and her dna says her top 3 breeds are Australian shepherd/mini Aussie/Border Collie. She has impeccable manners and a great recall. Riata loves people and dogs. She has not been tested with cats or kids but a respectful child 10+ may be considered due to her even temperament and sweet nature. Riata and her sister had double FHO surgery due to either a genetic condition or poor nutrition as puppies, or both. Both girls did amazing with surgery and PT and are unrestricted for activities. Riata is potty trained and crate trained and would love a secure fenced in yard as she enjoys lounging in the sun. A smaller space could be sufficient if she gets exercise and her humans are home more often than not. She will melt your heart with her loving demeanor. If you are interested in meeting Riata, the first step is to complete our meet and greet application at https://www.corgisandfriends.com/forms We require the application, home and reference check, and meet with everyone in the home.
