Pet Of the Week

Who’s looking for that fun loving, active, girl to fill their home, heart, and life? 

Skittles is a 1 year old Border Collie mix, and weighs 32 lbs. She loves playing fetch and then spending her resting time at your feet. She wants to be near you at all times, so no bathroom trips by yourself ☺ but you also don’t have to worry about her running off. Skittles is getting along well with her foster dog brothers. She appears to have the border collie trait of sticking to one family, but will warm up to new people. The family that surrendered her says she is not good with cats, but the foster family hasn't tested her. Skittle does enjoy a good squirrel chase, but has always returned when called. She has not bothered the horses of the foster family. She sleeps quietly in a crate if need be, but is NOT suited for a home without walks, playtime, or other form of activity. No couch potatoes need to apply! She is the sweetest girl, and would do best in a home that has herding breed experience. She could also be a good agility prospect. Her previous family said she is housetrained and so far, that is holding to be true.  

 

She has been vet checked, spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and is on heartworm/flea prevention.
