Ivy (Courtesy Post) | Female | Mixed Breed |
Rescue Story:
Ivy's current family adores her, but their growing responsibilities make it challenging to provide the time, exercise, and attention a dog of her size and energy needs. They want Ivy to find a loving home where she can thrive with the care and engagement she deserves.
As a courtesy post Zoe's has not met "Ivy". We facilitate the adoption behind the scenes to ensure a safe rehoming. We ensure the animal is up to date on vet care, spayed/neutered, and is assessed by one of our partner trainers - Zoe's does not personally know the animal. It is the adopters' responsibility to do their due diligence - ask for vet records, behavioural assessment, microchip information, and/or a trial period.
Date of Birth: December 10, 2019 (est)
Energy Level: Medium - Ivy has mellowed with age but still enjoys playful moments
Size (adult): Large (approx 70lbs)
Adoption Fee: $425 What a deal for this gorgeous gal!

Critter Twitter:
Ivy is a sweet, sensitive, and strikingly beautiful German Shepherd/Border Collie mix with a radiant smile, stunning coat colors, and charming floppy ears. She’s a smart, eager-to-please dog who loves learning new tricks and engaging in mentally stimulating activities. Ivy’s favorite pastimes include playing chase in the backyard and snuggling with her favorite people. She’s a loyal companion who flourishes in a calm, predictable environment and would love a home that offers plenty of games and mental enrichment. While Ivy may need time to adjust to new surroundings, her affectionate nature and devotion make her a truly rewarding companion.
About my Behaviour:
Ivy is fully house-trained and responds well to a consistent routine and quiet home. She can be vocal and weary when meeting new people and may experience anxiety in busy or unpredictable settings, so a quiet home without shared walls is ideal. She can be reactive at the window and in the yard. Her current family is committed to facilitating multiple meet-and-greets to ensure a smooth transition to her new home and to support her socialization progress.
How’s my Health?
Ivy is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, dewormed, and microchipped, ensuring she’s ready to join her forever home in excellent health.
