Sunnie in KY - Loves Lap Time & Belly Rubs - Great Pyrenees and Border Collie Dog Available for Adoption in Beacon, New York

Meet Sunnie, a charming Great Pyrenees and Border Collie mix who is as bright and happy as her name suggests! This pretty girl came into rescue with her 5 babies, from a shelter in Kentucky. She is moderately active and has wonderful house manners — she's housebroken, crate trained, and leash trained, and she even knows commands like sit, down, fetch, and easy. Sunnie is a playful and intelligent soul who loves zoomies through the house, fetch with her favorite toys, and quality time with her people. She adores being brushed, getting belly rubs and ear massages, and running around in the cool evening air before bed. When she's not burning energy outside, she's perfectly happy lounging in the air conditioning and gazing out the window, so she's a wonderful balance of active and relaxed. She also loves car rides and handles a trip through Lowe's on leash like a total pro! Sunnie thinks she's a lap dog, and honestly, who could say no to that smile? She loves leaning against her favorite people and soaking up every bit of affection she can get. She is best suited to a home that can give her plenty of one-on-one attention and lots of love — she truly thrives on it. Sunnie would do great as the only dog in the home, or with small dogs. A five-foot fence will keep her safely contained, or she could be a leash-walk-only pup. She does well meeting new people once she's had a little time to adjust. She's a bit sensitive to loud noises like thunder and popping sounds, so a calm environment suits her best. With her intelligence, her loving personality, and that irresistible grin, Sunnie is truly one of a kind. Could she be the perfect addition to your family?
