Shiloh - Border Collie and Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Stephenville, Texas

Shiloh was found as a stray out in the county during the freezing weather at the beginning of the year. Thankfully, those cold days are behind her, and now she's ready to find a warm, loving home to call her own!
Shiloh is an incredibly sweet girl who loves people and soaking up all the attention she can get. She does well with other dogs once she's had some time to acclimate and get comfortable. She has not been around cats, so we are unsure how she would do with feline friends.
Shiloh does have some herding instincts when it comes to cattle and horses. She's also been accused of chasing chickens, although there's never been any actual proof of her feathered crimes! Because of this, a home without free-roaming livestock or poultry may be the best fit.
While Shiloh is happy to hang around the house during the day, she does have a bit of an adventurous side once the sun goes down. She can climb 4-foot fences and has been known to wander off at night, so secure containment and supervision will be important to keep her safe. She is also terrified of gunshots and will need a family that understands her fear and helps her feel secure during loud noises.
Shiloh's finders never had her inside their home, so we are unsure if she is potty trained. She may need some patience and consistency as she adjusts to indoor living and learns the household routine. On the bright side, she walks nicely on a leash and is a great passenger in the car, making her a wonderful companion for outings and adventures!
Shiloh is a loving girl with so much affection to give. She just needs a family willing to keep her safe, understand her quirks, and give her the forever home she deserves. Come meet Shiloh and see if she's the missing piece to your family!
Shiloh is spayed and fully vaccinated. She is pending a microchip and heartworm test.

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.
