WINNIE - Great Pyrenees and Anatolian Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Richmond, California

Meet Winnie, the happiest tail-wagger you'll ever meet! This beautiful Border Collie mix is incredibly smart, eager to please, and always excited to learn something new. A DNA test revealed she's 43% Border Collie, 33% Great Pyrenees, 16% Anatolian Shepherd, and 8% mixed breed-a unique combination that gives her the perfect balance of intelligence, loyalty, and affection.

Winnie thrives on routine and loves having both a job to do and a family to love. Whether she's chasing a tennis ball, going for long walks, riding in the car, or showing off on the dog treadmill, she's happiest when she's active and spending time with her people. After a day of fun, she's more than ready to curl up beside you for belly rubs and snuggles.

Winnie has completed professional training and has wonderful manners. She's great on leash, has reliable recall, and knows an impressive list of commands, including sit, down, stay, paw, spin, heel-to-sit, center, and "hand", where she'll gently place her toy or ball right into your hand.

While Winnie absolutely adores people, she'd prefer to be the only dog in the home. She isn't comfortable meeting or living with other dogs, so she'll do best with a family that can give her all the attention she deserves. Because she thrives on consistency and can be sensitive to a busy environment, she'd also be happiest in a home without young children.

If you're looking for a loyal adventure partner who will happily join you on walks, road trips, and outdoor activities-and then settle in for a cozy evening of cuddles-Winnie is ready to steal your heart. With her bright mind, loving personality, and irresistibly wagging tail, she's ready to become someone's very best friend.
