MEET LINDSEY - ONE EAR UP, A HEART FULL OF LOVE! Collie / Shepherd Mix. Female (Spayed). 2 Years, 9 Months. 60 lbs. Location: Upland Animal Shelter, Upland, CA. Animal ID: IEPA-A-18546. Intake Date: January 23, 2026. BEAUTIFUL, PLAYFUL, AFFECTIONATE, AND ABSOLUTELY UNFORGETTABLE! Some dogs are beautiful. Some dogs are funny. Some dogs are affectionate. And then there's Lindsey, who decided she could be all three! With her gorgeous face, that irresistibly adorable standing ear, and a personality overflowing with happiness, Lindsey is the kind of dog who makes you smile before you've even said hello. But her greatest beauty is her heart. Lindsey is an affectionate, intelligent, playful girl who loves people, enjoys other dogs, and believes life should include toys, treats, water, and plenty of cuddles! FETCH - THE LINDSEY WAY! Lindsey loves toys, especially soft, squeaky stuffed animals, which she enjoys without destroying them. She also loves fetch, but she's invented her own version! You throw the ball. Lindsey runs after it, picks it up, and starts coming back. Then she stops halfway to enjoy her wonderful treasure! Why rush back when you can have a little fun? Show her another toy, and she's ready for the next throw! It's part fetch, part independent play, and entirely Lindsey. During playtime, she'll happily take breaks to visit you for affection, petting, and perhaps a delicious treat. A WATER-LOVING COMEDIAN! Lindsey absolutely loves water! She enjoys splashing in the pool and occasionally emptying water bowls because she apparently thinks watching water spill everywhere is hilarious. But her love of water also reveals how clever she is. When she's playing with her best friend Marwin and wants a little peace, she simply goes to the middle of the pool and lies down. Why? Because Marwin doesn't like water! Lindsey has discovered her own private relaxation zone! LINDSEY & MARWIN - A BEAUTIFUL FRIENDSHIP Lindsey arrived at the shelter with her dear friend Marwin on January 23, 2026. Although they live in separate kennels, volunteers bring them together in the play yard whenever possible. Watching them run, chase, and play together is truly heartwarming. Lindsey can occasionally become protective of Marwin when other dogs approach the play-yard fence. However, when she's by herself, she shows friendly curiosity toward other dogs and appears interested in making new friends. She's a playgroup rockstar and recently enjoyed a friendly, playful meeting with another shelter dog, Roger. Lindsey is considered good with dogs, although supervised introductions and compatibility testing are recommended. She could thrive with a friendly, playful canine companion. It would be wonderful if Lindsey and Marwin could find a home together. However, they are not required to be adopted as a pair. Lindsey is an extraordinary dog in her own right and deserves her forever family whether she's adopted with Marwin or separately. 60 POUNDS OF LOVE - AND A LAP DOG AT HEART! Lindsey is a true social butterfly! She's incredibly affectionate and loves approaching people for petting, cuddles, and attention. Despite her size, she considers herself a lap dog! She's also wonderfully independent. She can entertain herself with her toys, but she never forgets to come back and share some love with her humans. She's smart, eager to learn, treat-motivated, and already knows basic commands, including 'sit.' She walks nicely with a properly fitted harness, which helps with her occasional pulling. Her friendly nature and willingness to learn make her a wonderful candidate even for first-time dog owners. LINDSEY'S IDEAL FOREVER HOME: Lindsey would thrive with an active, loving family who enjoys exercise, outdoor adventures, interactive play, and plenty of affection. She's a playful adult dog, so children ages 13 and older are recommended. Younger children may be considered with appropriate supervision and an individual assessment. She has a high prey drive and should not live with cats. She would love a home with opportunities for water play, squeaky toys, positive reinforcement training, and possibly a compatible canine companion. Medical note: Lindsey's right eye has an appearance that may suggest a cataract. Veterinary evaluation is recommended. WHY OUR VOLUNTEERS LOVE LINDSEY: Because she's simply Lindsey! The beautiful girl with the unforgettable ear. The girl who invented her own version of fetch. The girl who thinks water bowls are entertainment. The clever girl who escapes to the pool when she wants a break. The girl who loves her friend Marwin. And the affectionate sweetheart who interrupts her own playtime just to come over and ask for a little love. Lindsey has been waiting for her forever family since January 23, 2026. That's far too long for a young, joyful dog with so much love to give. ADOPT LINDSEY - ONE EAR UP, BOTH PAWS READY, AND HER WHOLE HEART WAITING FOR YOU!
