Meet Thea, a bright and social Border Collie mix who loves making new friends wherever she goes. With her friendly nature and active mind, she is happiest when she has people, playtime, and a little adventure in her day. Thea has a distinctive black and white coat and sparkling brown eyes that perfectly match her personality. At 7 months old and 40 pounds, we can only estimate her adult size. However, we believe she will likely be on the larger side of medium dog size, between 45 and 55 pounds when fully grown.Thea enjoys playing with other dogs and does well with kids. She thrives on activity and attention and would love a home where she can join in on walks, hikes, playtime in the yard, and other family adventures. If left to her own resources, Thea will climb a fence and also chase poultry or livestock which are attributes true to her breed. Because she is a smart and curious young dog, Thea will do best in a home that can keep her engaged and provide safe space to run and explore under supervision. She has not yet had the opportunity to meet cats since coming into rescue, so her compatibility with them is currently unknown.She is working on her young dog basics with learning to walk nicely on a leash. Thea is eager to keep learning and growing alongside her forever family. Thea has stepped up to the plate and hit a homerun with her house and crate training. She is a master at both and looking forward to show off her skills to her family. Although she is housetrained, it is important to remember that accidents can occur while adjusting to a new home environment. All she needs now is an active and adventurous family ready to welcome her home. If you have been looking for the adventure of a lifetime with a warm and happy companion, apply for Thea now.* When considering adoption, keep in mind that dogs thrive on structure and routine.
