Meet Bellz!
Bellz is an 11-month-old Border Collie with a spunky personality, a loyal heart, and brains for days. True to her breed, she is incredibly smart and highly food motivated, which makes her a great candidate for continued training. She is crate trained and mostly house trained, and she gets along wonderfully with other dogs-especially if they're ready to play!
This girl lives for fun. Bellz will happily play fetch all day long and is especially talented at catching a bouncing tennis ball mid-air. Once she's comfortable, her energetic and playful side really shines.
Bellz can be a very shy at first. New people and environments make her nervous, and she will slink low to the ground and stick very close to the person she trusts most. But don't let that fool you-she is incredibly loving to her special people. She just needs a little time, patience, and reassurance to build confidence for you to be that person. She is wary of strangers and she will warn you if a stranger approaches your home. Your space is her space after all. She would thrive with an owner who is committed to continuing to work on her socialization and with taking her to new places with lots of positive interactions.
Because of her sensitive nature, Bellz would do best with a dog-savvy family, ideally someone familiar with herding breeds. She will need a securely fenced yard where she can safely run, play, and burn off her energy. She is still working on her leash skills and does best in calmer, controlled environments with someone she trusts.
Once Bellz bonds with you, she bonds hard. She'll want to be as close as physically possible-curled up beside you, pressed against you, or gazing deeply into your eyes with her intense (and slightly hilarious) Border Collie stare. It may be a little unnerving at first, but it's pure love.
Bellz weighs about 45 pounds and is nearly full grown. We're unsure how she does with cats, and due to her skittishness, a home without young children would likely be best.
Bellz came from a home where she had some early socialization but then spent much of her time outdoors without continued exposure. Because of this, she's looking for a patient, committed family who will help her continue to grow into the amazing dog she's meant to be.
If you're looking for a fun, loyal, and deeply devoted companion-and you have the time and experience to help her thrive-Bellz just might be your perfect match.
If you're looking for a gentle, food-loving corgi who will reward your patience with devotion and cuddles, Ana might be your perfect match.
