Female Dog, Border Collie
Border Collie (Medium Coat)
Description:
Please contact [email protected] for more information about this pet.Meet Shaka!!LOVES People! Shaka is a 6 1/2 year old female Border Collie, she is being fostered in Urbana, Illinois. Shaka is extremely smart. She does well in meeting new people. Shaka is very clean and neat, enjoys being petted. She takes treats nicely, with the right pet parent, she will be a lovely, devoted companion.Shaka has made progress on resource guarding. Shaka should be the only female dog in the home, she wants to be the queen bee. She does fine with canine brothers who allow her to be the queen bee. She hasn't been reactive to my cats. Shaka is still working on her housebreaking skills. She has separation anxiety, but she is doing better on anti-anxiety meds., she still has a big fear of loud noises. Shaka is still athletic and flexible, Shaka will require a fence, an e-fence will not work for her, so a fence six feet high would be ideal, a non-chain-link fence would be good. Shaka takes treats nicely, and she gives sweet hugs when I return home. She loves being with her human and having a canine brother to run and play with in a fenced yard. Because Shaka can be headstrong, she should have an experienced handler. I'm constantly working with her to redirect or correct her when she's about to show some resource guarding. I'm quick to praise her when she doesn't show any resource guarding. Shaka is a fan favorites at the vet’s office. Shaka does jump up, but it's done in an affectionate way. Shaka will need a home with a 6’ privacy fence.*** The potential adoptor will get a refund if it’s determined by the Foster that it’s not a good match for the dog and the dog for them, if we do not process their application.If you have questions about Shaka, please email [email protected] For additional information on Border Collies and our adoption process, please visit our website at www.comebyebcrescue.com.
