Location:

Dallas, GA

Description:

Friends to the Forlorn Adopt-a-Bull Name: Willow Breed: Shepherd/Border Collie Sex: Female Approx. DOB: 10/20/2022 Weight: 25 lbs RESCUING WILLOW We received a call asking to help a family of pups in Temple. The female and male parents were truly feral, living independently for many years, but they also had a few puppies. We spent weeks trying to gain their trust, setting humane traps and cameras with a lot of waiting and midnight trips to check. After a few long weeks, we finally caught one of the puppies. We named her Willow. Though safe now, she has no idea how to be a domesticated dog and immediately shuts down. We knew this puppy would need a special kind of foster home, a quiet home, and a family's patience to help her grow. Thankfully FTTF has some really amazing volunteers. Willow received her FREEDOM RIDE on 8/9/23. ABOUT WILLOW Willow is your typical puppy, but not only is she learning obedience training, but also just how to be a dog coming from her situation. Her nicknames include B, Bea, Bean, Beanie, etc. It started with WillaBee for whatever reason and has continued to morph. She is going to be a tall and long girl. Willow would learn so much from other dogs in the home and owners who want to spend a lot of time with her. Her foster siblings have been trying to keep up with her puppy energy and for the most part, they have been good together, even letting her sit on them (she has a lack of personal space). She is mostly submissive and will roll over to show her belly if the playing gets too rough. Every once in a while, she will get overstimulated while playing and gets snappy, so we will have a timeout. Her crate training is complete and she loves to eat her food in there and sleep at night, but is also comfortable sleeping in the human bed. She will not have an accident in a crate, but if you leave her out loose in a room she could. Willow has been as great as a puppy can be with small children and kids. She has energy, so not knowing the comfort levels of kids is something she cannot decipher, and just wants to wiggle and give kisses if that means knocking them down. Older children who can run and play with her would be best, she would love to have a human best friend! Leash walking and normal obedience training are key for her. She does much better walking with another dog, knowing that every step is okay. Her absolute favorite activity is being outdoors, even just laying in the grass watching the property, she likes a good vantage point. She settles for car rides and just enjoys it. She would be a wonderful family pet! ADOPTING WILOW… Willow is spayed, up to date on vaccines, dewormed, and microchipped. She is on monthly preventative. She is eating high-quality grain-free dry dog food. Her adoption fee is $300.
