Name: Presley
Mix/Breed: Border Collie
Sex/Age/Weight: Female, 8.5 years, 63 lbs.
Health: Spayed. Up to date on shots. For additional health information, contact the rescue listed below.
History/Personality: Presley is a sweet Border Collie that needs ajusting to a new environment. When she settles in, she tolerates other dogs, but can dominate at times. Her favorite activity is watching cats and needs to be called off when she becomes over-interested. She would do best in a home without cats. Presley can be crated and lets you know when she's had enough. She loves sleeping on a couch or bed, and cuddling is something she will do often. She would do well in a low-key environment where she can follow someone around during the day. Presley is best in a home without children, as she can snap when stressed. She is terrified of thunder and loud noises, so she needs a safe environment.
Adoption Fee: $80.00
Agency/Location/Contact info: Rocky Mountain Border Collie Rescue , Lafayette, CO. Telephone: (303) 906-2648. E-mail: bordercollierescue@earthlink.net |
