About Baby Poppy

Lab / Border Collie
Age: Young Puppy
Sex: Female

Miss Poppy is a beautiful girl with brains, energy and joy enough for everyone. The Lab in her is all about pleasing you and the Shepherd in her is all about doing her job of keeping things in order. This young beauty is going to be a big girl too and really doesn't know her own size and strength. Poppy gets along great with other large dogs, when they aren't telling her to knock it off. She really wants to get along with small dogs but most of them can't handle her energy and clumsiness. Keep in mind she's pretty much a teenager now and so bugging another dog is something she finds quite entertaining. Cats? She wants to like cats as well but they tend to run and hide. Kids are a great thing to her but she may inadvertently knock one or two over on accident just because she's so excited to be with them and just wants to play. Poppy is perfect in a crate, kenneling herself on her own. She is learning to be great on a leash as well. Give her some time to mature, give her a job or at least let her think she's working, and she'll be a model citizen by the time she's full grown. She would be a great running partner too as this girl really doesn't know the meaning of walk unless she's actually on a leash. All potential adopters are expected to complete an application and provide pictures of their yard, patio, and/or balcony making sure we can see the fence line and/or railing. The application can be completed and submitted from our website - throwmeabonedogrescue.org - the link is found of the Adoption Process page. Applications will be reviewed for approval before setting an appointment to come meet and possibly adopt the dog of interest. In addition, those who live in a rental property are expected to provide proof that they are allowed to have a dog where they live. Each of our rescued dogs has been de-wormed if necessary, de-flea'd (with topical treatment if old enough, and by medicated bath if too young), spayed/neutered, microchipped, is up to date on shots, and has been fully examined by a veterinarian. In addition, each adopted dog comes with a starter baggie of the food it has been eating, a few treats for training purposes, a rawhide chew, a lead and collar, and a folder containing pertinent records.
