DESCRIPTION
Sylvie is one of 7 puppies that arrived to our rescue , along with their momma. Sylvie is described as quiet, calm, and more laid back until another puppy initiates play and then she is ready to roll! Sylvia is already showcasing her athletic abilities by being able to jump over barriers. Sylvie is a border collie/Australian shepherd mix. While her breed thrives off a job to do, Sylvia is the more relaxed type. She may do better as just being someone’s loving family pup. Remember that cattledogs are known for nipping. While they make wonderful family companions, this behavior is generally frowned upon if not corrected at a young age. They have a herding mentality and really thrive off having a job to do. Her breed is extremely intelligent if you’re looking for a pup that’s easy to train and teach commands!
