Meet Vada

Hi! My name is Vada!   I am likely a little under 1 year old, around 40 lbs. I *may* be part Border Collie but likely a mix of some sort.   My foster parents tell me I am super smart and a very quick learner. I am a good protector of the house/and my foster family, and get along great with the two boys in my foster family (ages 5 and 8). I can be shy/timid and vocal at first when meeting new people but I just had a lot of life changes. It only took me a couple days to make myself at home here. I am still nervous around larger groups of people but am social so just need time to get comfortable.   My foster family has another dog who I LOVE! I do have some energy so running in the fenced in yard is the best. I would love to find a family that has a playmate for me to do that with. I love to be outside, love going on walks, and really have enjoyed my first experiences with snow. I have been working on my leash skills and with some more training, will be a great walking/jogging companion.   I am doing very good with crate training day/night, but if I had my way I would snuggle with the boys in my foster family at night. I am doing well with house training and am treat motivated so will learn behaviors quickly.   I love chewing on nylabones!!    I don’t know how I feel about cats only because I haven’t been around them much, so would like to introduce myself to them before moving in.   My foster family describes me as fun, spunky, shy for a minute, sweet, and happy!     I am spayed and up to date on all shots.   I would love to meet your family to see if I am the perfect fit or if you have any questions, you can ask to see if my foster family can answer.  

Adoption Process
Pets are altered, vaccinated and microchipped before adoption. Adopters must complete an application and contract and pay fee (which varies based on age and type of animal). They also must provide references and pass a home visit.
