Mallory is a super smart and friendly dog who loves to play, be outside and watch the wildlife but also will snuggle on the floor or couch. She likes to be where her people are and be part of the activity! She even "helped" put a small trampoline together by laying on it-- she thought it was a new dog bed for her! She has a good memory for where she has seen critters outside and likes to do sniffaris to search for them. Mallory is playful with toys and likes to mouth and shake them but has not destroyed any toys yet!
Mallory's adoption fee is $300, and she is eager to find her forever family!

ABOUT: BORDER COLLIE DOG BREED
The Border Collie is a highly intelligent and energetic dog breed known for their herding capabilities and exceptional obedience. Originating from the border regions of Scotland and England, these agile and versatile dogs are famous for their focus, stamina, and trainability. With their striking black and white coat and intense gaze, Border Collies excel in various canine sports and activities, making them ideal companions for active families and individuals seeking a loyal and dynamic pet.
The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
