Ginny - Female Sheltie Shetland Sheepdog (Pueblo West, CO)

Ginny - Female Sheltie Shetland Sheepdog

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet our wonderful gorgeous Ginny Ginny is a highly intelligent eight year old Sheltie. She weighs 30 pounds - just as she should Her health is good and she is quite lovely.Ginny came to us from a Missouri puppy mill. We were fortunate to be able to help this lovely lady in her quest for her forever home. She is housebroken and crate-trained. And her foster mom provides her all the best things in life. Ginny has learned quickly from her foster fur-siblings that sweetness and good manners are praised and she loves to be praised.Our gorgeous Ginny is a focused dog with a high prey drive so she may not be the best candidate for a first-time dog lover. But she is affectionate and poised around humans and has a lot of love to give to a patient and dog-savvy person. What Ginny and all former mill dogs need most is - you guessed it - patience If you are a Sheltie lover who wants to take on the challenge of a remarkable dog who has not had any formal training this girl has the potential to become that special dog maybe even a once-in-a-lifetime companion Ginny tends to be passive about toys and dog beds. She prefers to rip her toys up (as do a lot of dogs) so she will need to be monitored otherwise a shoe might become a toy. This gorgeous girlie can share a home with other dogs as long as they stand their ground with her or have a size advantage over her. Young children may not be best for Ginny although kids over 12 may be just fine. As well Ginny should not be around cats or any small animals such as bunnies gerbils hamsters or 5 pound teacup Chihuahuas.
