My Rescue Story
I was found with my mama and siblings when we were only about a week old. I was adopted out as a puppy but unfortunately it didn’t work out and I was returned. I have battled through some health issues including two hip surgeries but am now ready to start my search for a forever home.

What am I like?
Let me tell you!
I’m a very sweet girl who just wants be loved and feel special. I am very smart and love attention, but I can be vocal when I’m feeling anxious or if there’s something I think I need to let you know about. I am very enthusiastic about getting outside as soon as you are awake! I am happy to play with my toys or chill watching you go about your day for a while. I love going on walks for the sniffs and to meet other friendly doggies, but keep in mind that my hips only allow a couple short walks a day right now. I love to observe the outdoors, be outside with my family and I’m great on car rides. I enjoy learning new things as much as I love curling up for a nap – my current pawrents give me daily mental stimulation games to keep me sharp!
How do I act?
I would do best in a family with a predictable schedule and calm house. I can be food reactive so it would be best to feed me separately from other dogs that may be in the house. I was born to herd, especially any small dogs or cats I see, but because of my hip surgeries, I currently have less stamina than you might expect from a 1.5 year old girl. I am not crate trained, but am house trained and do very well on leash and on car rides. I can be quite vocal and really enjoy spending time outside so a house with no shared walls and a backyard would be best. As a condition of adoption, we must register for a force free, in-person, group training class. We’ll learn so much together and bond. Please check out www.albertaforcefreealliance.com for some great force free trainers!
My Health is Very Important!
I have been spayed, am up to date on my vaccinations, dewormed and microchipped. I have had two hip surgeries and I’m currently in recovery from the second one.

Our adoption policies/process can be found here. Please review it prior to filling out an adoption application, as it can help you determine whether our rescue is the right fit for your needs.
