Description:
Please meet Barbie, a collie who loves people. Although 3 years old, Barbie still has the energy level of a puppy and is an exuberant girl. She will play chase with the other dogs inside the house to burn off energy. Outside, she both plays and explores. When she wants to cuddle, she sometimes bounds over the back of the couch to lie next to her human. Her foster thinks Barbie would do well with someone who is active and happy to help her burn off her excess energy. Barbie is curious about their cat but hasn’t interacted when not in a crate. She has interacted well with easy going dogs not bothered by her diva ways. Barbie knows the command to stay and has been working on other commands. When crated, Barbie plays happily with her toys.
Barbie came into our care without the knowledge of commands and consistent, loving care. She doesn’t have the polish of a dog who has had a secure home life. Barbie is, though, eager to love her forever people and work with them to learn all the skills she needs. Her joy and energy will win you over when she runs up to meet you, her forever family, for the first time.
