UPDATE 1/19/21: Bana is doing wonderful in her foster home. She now sniffs the cats ands walks away, if they run she will chase but can be called off. Bana is fine with children 12+. Her main requirement is to be a solo dog, she is doing wonderful with the resident ACD, but we prefer to place her as a solo. Adventures & fetch are high on her daily needs & her true loves, however she adores her person and cuddling at the end of the day is a great bonus. Bana is ready for her forever home!
7/25/2020: Bana has shown huge improvements and willingness to comply with the rules. She is re-learning to enjoy the company of the resident ACD & to leave the cats be. She crates like a dream, comes when called, loves to snuggle with her person & is a happy ACD. Bana is the epitome of a female ACD & if you understand that she will flourish in your care. She will not be placed in a home with children or animals smaller than her. I have some very strict placement requirements with her, b/c if they are not followed she will take over your heart, house, world, and universe. She is a normal issue free ACD in my care. If you are interested in adopting Bana please email info@ocdrescueteam.org for an application or go to our website for the link.
7/13/2020: Bana has Returned to OCDRT due to not getting along with the resident ACD. She is now 5 years old. Bana will require an ACD savvy home. Please check back for updates. Below is her bio from when she was first fostered with OCDRT.
New to OCDRT on 4/7/2015 from NE Ohio
Bana is being fostered in Creston OH
Bana was born in early November, around 5 months old, & petite at 20#. Bana was owner surrendered due to not being compatible with the owner's Senior Border Collie. She has a great foundation and nearly all her vetting was completed. We will complete her vaccine's and micro-chip. She is crate trained, started well in house training, good on a leash, knows her basic obedience, and loves to play fetch. Bana is defensive around the pack, but is learning they mean her no harm so as she lets her guard down, we will see her true personality. Bana will require an ACD savvy home with puppy experience. Please check back for updates as we get to know her better during her 2 - 3 week evaluation.
UPDATE 5/9/2015: Bana had a successful meeting and is in her new home. We will update as she settles in.
UPDATE 5/26/2015: Bana is officially Adopted!
