She is quiet on country roads but whining in city stop and go traffic. Slow climbing stairs but has no trouble jumping on the couch, chair and bed.

She’s terrified of other dogs while out, especially if they bark at her. She has made friends with 2 other female dogs (at the same times) after slow introductions and tandem walks.

She is getting more brave while seeing other dogs out on walks as long as they don’t bark at her.Good with children? unknownTemperament: quiet and nervousMotivators? She’s eager to please. Not food motivated. Any commands? Sit, high five, paw, down, spin, go lay down, go get it, bring it here, paws up (on a stool), back up, harness (come sit to get your harness on)House trained? Yes but is used to going out frequently so will need time to be trained to a schedule/routine. Crate trained? No. Working on not being nervous around the crate. She is not destructive in the house. How long will it take to settle into a new environment? A few weeks/over a month.Any special needs or traits an adopter should know? Prey drive. Nervous around other dogs and strangers, especially if they’re loud or bigger. Has some separation anxiety. She is very eager to please and learn. She has had 1 “training” session for tricks and has a lot of potential. Picky eater - will currently only eat Purina Dog Chow Chicken & Steak dry food. Travels well in the car but needs space. Prefers couch or floor over a dog bed. Sleeps on the bed with the human at night. Instagram: @ygk9fosterIf you think Wylde is the one for you - fill out an application today!

Story
Hi there! I'm Joy! I'm a lovely 3-year-old Border Collie mix with a beautiful black and white coat. I weigh 11 kg, making me the perfect size for all kinds of adventures! My Story: I was rescued just in time from a kill center, and now I'm looking for my forever home where I can share all my love and joy. My Personality: I'm very affectionate and love to rub against people, whether I know them or not. I'm always ready for some pets! You can lift me by putting your arm under my belly. I'm easy to handle! Once I get to know you, I'll happily show you my belly. It's my way of saying I trust you! I love meeting new dogs and always ask them to play. I'm a friendly girl! I might need a bit of caution when meeting new dogs for the first time, especially if toys or snacks are involved. When I see a cat during a walk, I stay focused on my human. Cats don't distract me! I enjoy outdoor activities and have a normal energy level. After a fun time outside, I like to rest quietly. I tend to pull on the leash a bit, but I generally follow my human well. I don't guard my food against people, but I might growl if another dog approaches me while I'm eating. I'm very calm in a kennel and know how to get in and out of a car by myself. I generally only do my business outside. Fun Facts: I'm people-friendly and get along with strangers easily. I used to guard resources, but I'm much better now. My new family should be firm when giving me snacks or toys. I might try to bite a stranger's hand if I'm in a kennel, but that's because I was traumatized while moving to a training center. I don't show any behavior issues at the training center, but I might need some time to adjust in a new place. I'm looking for a loving home where I can continue to grow and share my affection. If you think we could be a perfect match, please come meet me! ##2260916##

Story
Quick Facts Name: Damon Age: Estimated 7 months Gender: Male Neutered: Yes Breed: Border Collie mix Color: Black and white Weight: 12.5 kg Height: 48 cm (to the shoulder when standing on all fours) Health o Vaccinations: Up-to-date, including rabies and comprehensive vaccinations. o Heartworm Test: Negative (tested in July 2024). My Story Hello! I'm Damon, a lively and clever Border Collie mix who's always ready for an adventure. My story began on a tough note-I was found lying weak and dehydrated on the streets. Thankfully, kind people noticed me and brought me to safety, where I was nursed back to health. Since then, I've blossomed into a strong, happy pup, and now I'm ready to find a family who's as enthusiastic about life as I am! My Social Side True to my Border Collie roots, I'm full of energy and love to play. Whether it's chasing after toys, playing tug, or running in wide-open spaces, I'm in my element when I get to move and explore. I also enjoy playing with my dog friends, and while I can be a little rambunctious, it's all in good fun! I'm happiest with buddies who don't mind my playful style, but I know how to be gentle when the situation calls for it. When it comes to people, I might be a little shy at first-especially around younger children who make sudden moves-but once I get comfortable, I warm up quickly and enjoy gentle pets and attention. I even don't mind being picked up into a cozy hug! I've also been practicing my manners and obedience skills in a training program, where I'm impressing everyone with my intelligence and eagerness to learn. My Energy Level & Walks My energy level is pretty high, so outdoor adventures are essential for me to burn off steam. After a good play session or a nice walk, though, I settle down happily and relax. On walks, I can get a bit excited and pull on the leash, but I respond well to gentle guidance. I'm naturally focused on my human, so with a little training, I'm sure I'll be a great walking buddy. More About Me As for my routine, I'm a big fan of outdoor bathroom breaks, and I'm learning about scent marking when in new places-it's just my way of saying hello! I'm pretty quiet at home and rarely bark, but I might give a little yip if I want something. Last Message Overall, I'm looking for an experienced family, ideally one who understands Border Collies or active, intelligent dogs like me. I'll thrive in a home where I can get plenty of physical exercise and mental stimulation, as well as consistent guidance. With my smarts, boundless energy, and loving personality, I'm eager to be someone's loyal and playful companion. Could you be the one to give me my forever home?
