My personality

My story

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

This. Is. Beauty. She likes to boogie! Beauty's a 3 year oldish black bicolor, 45 poundish, Aussie girl with a boppin' bobtail. Foster Mom says she's a lovable, smart, silly girl who boogies her bouncy bootay when she's happy and leaps and bounds when she's excited! Nothing gets this gal bouncin' like playing with ball in the backyard. (Chuck-it! and Kong Squeak Air balls are favorites.) Beauty's a bit of an Independent-this lass knows what she likes. She prefers to come to you when she's ready for all the pets and ear scratches. Impulsive huggies and squeezies aren't her thing. Beauty will be a fantastic companion for most anyone who wants a dog to love and hang out with. There's nothing like being welcomed home by your pup's "so happy to see you!" face and little bopping bobtail telegraphing her joy. Beauty's affection and sense of security will grow as she learns confidence and trust with a patient, loving Person. The darling is very responsive to direction-calm calls and gentle correction is all that is needed. Happy tones bring out that wiggle waggle butt-joy. Slow and steady is the best way to make lifelong bonds with Beauty. Learning to walk on leash-still a work in progress. Foster Mom is working with her. Beauty's Adopter will want to keep training her. Car rides aren't a current favorite pastime-they can cause a lil tummy upset. Beauty initially displayed resource guarding with the other canines in her Foster home-it got better as she settled in. Still, her Person will want to give her consistent boundaries and guidance on acceptable manners over time and feed her separately from any other pooches. Beauty needs a little time to decompress and learn her new environment. Can you give her the gift of patience and time? When folks are away, Beauty prefers to be in her crate. She has no problem with chilling in it for a few hours when she's home alone. So, who are Beauty's People? For this sweet, smart, independent gal-a calm, optimistic Home with Folks who believe a dog makes a house a home. (She isn't meant for anyone looking for a cuddly lap dog.) Happy and loving tones bring out Beauty's best in loving and learning. Beauty is around other pups and kids in the Foster home, but given her slow warmup, no other dogs, or just one calm, confident, canine pal might be nice. For kiddos-gentle, respectful of dogs, 13 and up might love her best. Kitties are a puzzle, so she is fine without felines. A quieter home, without lots of visitors is ideal for this gal. Beauty's looking for a place to chill most of the day with her Person, toss a few balls in the backyard, and maybe learn to walk on leash or hike on quiet paths after further training. In turn, she'll give lots of bootay boogies and love. Herding breed experience is helpful, but is not required for Adopters who have educated themselves on the Aussie breed. Because of her need for leash acclimation, and get-to-know-you time, a fenced in yard is preferred, but may not be necessary for very dog centric, hands on folks. Multiresidential buildings (such as apartments)and dog parks are not a good fit for this pup. The best adopters give their new family member time to decompress and grow familiar with a new environment and routine. They see the importance of investing time to understand their dog and build a bond of trust and provide steady, reasonable guidance and training. An adopter commits to slow, monitored introductions with new people, especially children, other animals, and new places. Beauty bounces by to say, 'Do we sound like a match? Let's boogie!'
