My name is Mama Bea!

Hi there, I’m Mama Bea!  I am a six year old female border collie mix.  I am the perfect size at 45 pounds.  

I bond quickly to my human and will talk to you when I want something.  I don’t bark much:  it’s more of a hum and a mumble.  You’ll soon find out what I mean!

Because I am a working dog, I like to keep busy.  I would do best in a home with other dogs.  I will model their behavior and partner with them to get all the important things done!  I love to play in the backyard, or just snoop around.  A backyard for me is a must in my future home.  We should definitely plan on some time everyday to go on walks and check out the neighborhood.

Speaking of exercise, I want to go on lots of hikes with you!

I would do well in a home with school age children (8+) who want to pay me lots of attention.  I’m working on not jumping up, so they need to stand up to my affection.

I am really curious about cats and will chase them, so I would do best in a home without them.  Let me look at the squirrels in the trees all day long!

I am a super smart girl and already know basic obedience.  I’d love to practice it more, in order to form a tight bond with my person.

I am house trained and kennel trained.  My kennel is not my favorite place, but the good news is, you can trust me to be loose in the house, unattended, and I won't destroy anything.  I will sleep at the foot of your bed in a dog bed all night and I you might catch me snoozing on the couch during the day.

I’m a little shy meeting new people at first, but give me a chance and I’ll warm up to you quickly.  If you’d like to meet me, please fill out an application for adoption and my foster mom will get in touch with you:   https://bit.ly/RRAdoptionApplication
