Indianapolis - Labrador Retriever and Border Collie Dog for Adoption in Michigan City, Indiana

Indianapolis came in to the shelter terrified of humans. She cowered in the corner, recoiling after any human interaction. It was clear that these pups were going to need time to adjust and time to learn how to receive love. Fast-forward to a week later, and she is busting out of her shell. She is a happy girl that reminds me of Tigger with her constant bouncing and excitement. She absolutely loves following around my big dogs, and she is very curious about my cat. She seems to want to play with my cat, so far interactions have been friendly. She will need time to trust her new environment, a gentle and patient soul is what she needs. Her front legs are getting stronger, she was under nourished and confined to a space that did not allow her to exercise. As a result, her front legs and feet would get fatigued and she would fall over. I have seen a drastic improvement in her strength in the short amount of time that I have been able to love on her. She will make a great companion for a family that can slowly teach her the ropes, I think she will do great with a friendly dog that she can follow around and emulate after.
