LASSIE
Cattle Dog, Shepherd
🇺🇸
Denver, Colorado
June 3rd
female, medium, young
DESCRIPTION
Lassie is an absolute love bug who adores people and has gotten along wonderfully with every dog she's met so far. She loves hanging out with her foster sibling and would likely enjoy having a friend in her forever home.
Her favorite place seems to be right next to her person. She thrives on companionship and would be happiest with someone who has plenty of time to spend with her and include her in daily life.
She is fully house-trained, knows her basic commands, and is quickly learning the ropes of leash walking. She'll benefit from a little continued practice, but she's already doing great and doesn't pull much at all.
She's not much of a barker, enjoys a ride in the car and really loves naps.
