My story

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

Indie, so named for her life change over Independence Day weekend, is making fireworks of progress on her way to becoming a pet dog again. Indie was known in her neighborhood for living under an abandoned trailer with her puppies. PACA volunteers went to check on the situation and were able to capture Indie and her two puppies. Indie is now in a foster home and we think she likely was a pet previously. The word in the neighborhood varies, but some say she belonged to the man that owned the trailer and died TWO years ago. Indie is checking all the boxes of knowing things pet dogs do, especially the sound of a bone being unwrapped! Indie loves leash walks, playing with dog friends, Fetching a ball, and is always curious about her human companions are doing. She follows her foster mom around to help with housework. Needless to say any dog that can survive for two years by herself is smart. She is quite willing to follow human guidance. Indie is learning "come" and "sit"

Indie would do well with people that are willing to show her the ropes for a few weeks to continue her re-acquaintance with pet life. Indie is a unique wiry, bob-tailed mix of cattle dog, Aussie, and other herding breeds that makes the perfect combination. She is 2-3 years old and weighs about 40 lbs.
