Description
Dog Breed: Collie (medium coat). This sweet sensitive lady's name is Lily. Just like her name, Lily needs some time and TLC to blossom into the happiest version of herself. Lily can be worried and slow to warm up, so she would do best with a family that can meet her where she's at. She would love to go on long walks and cuddle up on the couch after a long day. Lily could potentially live with another calm dog friend, but doesn't mind being your one and only either. She has never lived with cats or kids, but could potentially go home to some older kids that can respect her boundaries.

Overview:
The Collie, a majestic and intelligent breed, originates from Scotland where they were primarily used for herding sheep. Known for their striking beauty, Collies typically possess a long, flowing double coat that comes in a variety of colors including sable and white, tricolor, and blue merle. They have a graceful, athletic build, with a distinctive long muzzle and expressive eyes. In terms of temperament, Collies are renowned for being incredibly loyal, gentle, and highly trainable, making them excellent companions. Their affectionate nature makes them particularly well-suited for families with children, though their need for moderate exercise means they thrive in homes with yards, rather than cramped apartment living. While generally a healthy breed, potential owners should be aware of a predisposition to certain conditions like Collie Eye Anomaly (CEA) and drug sensitivities. With proper care and training, a Collie will enrich any household with their devoted companionship and bright personality.
