Story
Sola is a very sweet female Collie mix born in approximately March 2023. We don’t know a lot about her history, but it is clear that she has had lots of love and interaction with humans throughout her life. This girl is extremely affectionate, sweet, playful and smart. She truly is a wonderful pup! Sola learned potty training quickly and is now fully trained! She is very good in the house as well. She tends to stay off the furniture (except when she’s feeling lovey), and doesn’t chew or grab inappropriate things. She prefers her toys and doesn’t counter-surf. She sleeps in a crate, and stays in there quietly all night. We have, on occasion, crated her during the day for up to 4-5 hours at a time and she does very well. Sola gets along well with other dogs of all sizes, and even interacts nicely with cats. She does like to play a little energetically at times, so smaller or older dogs may not appreciate her enthusiasm. Outdoors, Sola likes to explore. The woods are her favorite! She’s great on a leash, and would make a perfect hiking buddy, or walking partner. At home, she would do best with a fenced yard, but she does very well on a tie-out as well. What we are working on with Sola: she's enrolled in an obedience class, and we expect her to do very well. We have been teaching her that not everyone loves kisses (she loves to lick, but this is improving), she is learning basic commands (she knows sit, down, get down, leave it and treat….selectively understands come and stay (distractions sometimes get her attention). She can be pretty high energy when she gets excited, although she can also be calm, quiet and loving at other times. We feel that all of these are manageable and will take some time and consistency. Some of our favorite things about Sola: she rarely barks, she’s always happy to see us, she gets along with all of the other dogs (and cats) in our home. She is very eager to learn. We love the way she prances and hops around in the morning, simply because it’s morning. She is such a good, easy dog already but we feel she has a ton of potential. We can’t wait to meet the lucky family who gets to call this girl their own!
