Description
Dog Breed: Australian Shepherd / Border Collie / Mixed (medium coat). Posey is a gorgeous 16 month old female Australian Shepherd/Border Collie mix who weighs in at approximately 37 pounds. She is a gorgeous brilliant young girl who needs an active home to call her own. Posey came to Angels as an owner surrender with her brother Finn after spending most of her first year in a sort of transient lifestyle. Sheâs ready for stability and structure and to be a part of a real family! We were told that Posey has been crated before and did fine with it, and that she is primarily house trained, but she needs someone with patience and flexibility to let her relearn some of the basics that she might have forgotten or be confused about. This is a very smart trainable girlie who will work for food and always try her best for you. Posey has lived with various other dogs in her short life, including her brother, and did well. As always, a meet and greet with any resident dogs will be a must. We have no idea how she may be with cats, but believe with some training and direction, she could do fine and may not try to herd themâ¦too much anyway. Though she be small, our Posey is a bouncy girl, kids over 8 are probably best. This dog is a clever active young dog. She is 100% NOT a couch potato. She needs to be engaged and have her mind and body exercised. She would do best with a fenced in yard, but this will be looked at on a case by case basis. She would likely excel playing at some doggy sports like agility, Flyball, or obedience. Sheâs just that smart and willing.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Border-Aussie, a captivating hybrid of the Australian Shepherd and Border Collie, is a relatively new designer breed gaining popularity for its intelligence and athleticism. Originating from the desire to combine the best traits of its highly trainable parent breeds, the Border-Aussie typically exhibits a medium build with a striking, often bi- or tri-colored coat that can be rough or smooth. Temperamentally, they are incredibly intelligent, energetic, and possess a strong work drive, making them eager to learn and excel in various dog sports. While generally good-natured and loyal, their high energy levels and need for mental stimulation make them best suited for active families or individuals who can provide consistent training and plenty of exercise; they are generally not ideal for apartment living. Potential owners should also be aware of common health concerns inherited from their parent breeds, such as hip and elbow dysplasia, eye conditions (like Collie Eye Anomaly), and epilepsy.
