Female Dog, Border Collie
Border Collie (Short Coat)
Description:
Please contact [email protected] for more information about this pet. Tail Wags Guaranteed! Penny is a delightful smooth coat, tri-color female Border Collie. She has beautiful white markings on her face, chest and front paws with a little white puffball on the tip of her tail. Penny has a distinct oval black marking on the center top of her head, and her ears are stand up perfect with a small tip. She is an affectionate, loyal, friendly companion. Penny is a happy girl and gets along well with my two Border Collies (male and female); she enjoys playing run around the tree. Her favorite thing is gathering toys, balls, and old socks which she keeps in her private spaces. :) She initially is shy upon meeting someone new but is quickly warming up to people and has done well with briefly passing other dogs on walks. She does exhibit minimum herding tendencies in her interaction with my male, nothing that I see as being troublesome, just part of being a BC. Penny has not been crated but does like her spaces (under a chair, in a basement shower and under the stairs). She is getting better at going on walks, sometimes nervous but with a little encouragement is good to go (she first would hide but was amenable to the leash, now she is ready at the back door). She tends to go outside, get her business done then go back inside. Her demeanor is changing over the time I have had her, the more comfortable she gets her ears are up, tail is wagging and a big smile on her face. She runs to the door when my neighbor visits and LOVES sitting outside with him (see video of Penny giving him kisses). Penny is food motivated and would benefit from an obedience class(she does sit when asked with treats). She notices squirrels and deer but has shown no interest in chasing them. She is a joy to walk on leash. The groomer gave her an A+ for listening, being bathed and brushed. She has no problems with being toweled dry (after rain) and being brushed. Penny is a girl who has come a long way in the time she has spent in foster care with my two dogs. She is looking for a loving owner who will be patient and kind That someone will be rewarded with lots of kisses. Penny was surrendered to CBBCR when her owner went to jail. She is being fostered in Long Beach, INPenny is two years old and around 50 pounds. Please contact [email protected] if you have any questions about Penny.
