DUFFY - COLLIE (LONG COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Collie (long coat). Born: October 13, 2024 Duffy is a very sweet, very shy, and very beautiful young collie. At 9 months old, he is a playful and energetic and happy boy! Duffy has received a lot of training and is very good in the house - though he's still a pup, so keep your socks off the floor, or you'll catch him tossing them around in a solo game of catch! He is fully housebroken, mostly limits his playing to dog toys, and calms down very well. Duffy has been going on long daily hikes with his foster mom and best doggy friend and loves the pre-hike fields playtime, where he and his BF race and tumble and run holding onto each others' necks. Duffy is timid around strangers and is still worried when cruising the neighborhood on leashed walks. He is definitely not a fan of big, loud trucks! Inside the house with his family, though, he is extremely cuddly and loving. He sleeps in his foster mom's bed - but knows not to lie in her spot! - and curls up next to her on the sofa for TV time. Duffy is tall now and still growing, so he's going to be a big guy. He's absolutely gorgeous, with classic sable collie coloring, face-framing black markings, and perfectly symmetrical pointed ears. He's truly a beautiful dog, inside and out, and is looking for a patient and loving family, ideally with another playful dog and a big yard!, to let him slowly see that the world is safe. Duffy is already a stunner, and is going to be a fantastic companion. Duffy is neutered, up to date on all vaccines, and very healthy.
