My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Viva (vivacious) is an all-round delightful puppy: She is social and affectionate without being too needy; she is confident but not pushy; and she is generally calm and easy-going for her age yet loves to play and explore. She is intelligent and learns pretty fast though she prefers to step back and observe before throwing herself into a training session.

She like to be near you or next to you on the couch when napping.

Viva is used to other dogs of various sizes and ages and keep

Unknown with cats but we imagine she will be fine.

Viva would most likely make a great dog to take camping and would love to go hiking. She has a blast doing outdoor activities and enjoys getting dirty. 😄

She has done fine with children of all ages she has met and wanted to play with them.

Close to housetrained and holds it in her crate all night. Obviously crate trained.

She has a bit of a tendency to guard the space of her person against other dogs in a typical herding dog way. An experienced adopter is best.

Born March 11, 2024. Age calculator (adjust today’s date:: https://www.calculator.net/age-calculator.html...

We think Viva will be a medium-large dog when grown.

Dad is a border collie or bc mix from ranch dogs and mom is a border collie mix of unknown origin. Dad has an outstanding temperament and is easy-going yet eager to do things with his people, great with other dogs, listens very well, wonderful off leash, social with new people without pestering them, very smart, and loves to learn new tricks and behaviors. His babies have probably inherited at least some of those tendencies though how you raise them has a big impact.
