Description:

If you are looking for a truly unique, active, smart and loving dog look no further Pippi Longstocking is your girl:

~She definitely has a Basset Hound body/legs combined with the personality & coloring of a short coat Border Collie. She is very long bodied and has beautiful markings.

House trained
Crate/Kennel trained
Loves toys
Active
Sweet & Cuddly

Update from foster home:

Penny (as we've been calling her) is a very sweet & energetic girl that loves to cuddle with her people or other dogs. She is housetrained and crate/kennel trained . We have 3 big dogs, she loves to play ruff & tumble with them in the yard. She is respectful of our senior dog when she doesn't want to play as well. She loves to meet new people and other dogs (especially playful dogs).

She LOVES toys and will keep herself busy if given any toy or bone. She is food motivated and willing to learn so she would do well with obidience classes or agility training. She will need an active home that will keep her mind busy and she will make a great walking or jogging companion in the warmer months.

NOTE: She has shown to be "situationally" good with cats; at this time we are seeking a cat free home for her or a home with a very dog savvy young cat. We are also looking for a home with kids over 5 years of age as she could easily knock over a small child or a baby in a car seat on the floor.

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Post Adoption: Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. We highly recommend Pet Insurance. Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance.

Pet Breeds: The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility or Shelter partner. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed.

If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess without knowing a pet’s full history.
