Description
Dog Breed: Australian Shepherd / Border Collie / Mixed. Adoption Fee: 600. Laika is an energetic and affectionate Aussie/Collie mix with a medium coat and the brightest blue eyes! When she first came into foster care, she was nervous and protective of her previous owner, but with patience, gentle reassurance, and lots of treats, she has warmed up and become very snuggly. Laika loves curling up at your feet for naps and often checks back in for attention when outside, showing just how loving and loyal she can be. She is still learning the ropes of meeting new people and dogs—she can be reactive and very vocal at first, so slow introductions are key. Around children, especially younger ones, Laika seems to build trust more quickly, and once she feels comfortable, her sweet and playful personality shines through. Due to her breed, she is a high-energy pup. Laika thrives on playtime, often chasing squeaky toys or running around with our resident dog, though her herding-dog style means she can play a bit rough. Laika knows basic commands like sit, come, and her name, and being very food motivated, she’s eager to keep learning. We are still working on potty training, but with continued training, patience, and love, Laika has the potential to be a loyal and cuddly companion who will bring both laughter and energy to her future forever home. Laikia is from an Owner Surrender. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract.
