Description
Dog Breed: Border Collie / Australian Kelpie / Mixed (medium coat). Apple came to us with her sister, Annie. Both came from a hoarder with too many dogs and not much socialization. Apple will be timid at first but comes around quickly. After a few sit downs with her, she will be in your lap. She is very affectionate and has a loving nature. She prefers to be outside but has been both inside and outside. Apple is also playful good with other dogs. This breed needs an active home and lifestyle, can you provide that for her? She is not leash trained yet. If you would like more information, please contact the shelter at 870-269-5200 or go to our website at schspets and complete an adoption application and someone will contact you for a meet and greet.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Border Kelpie is a dynamic and intelligent crossbreed resulting from the union of a Border Collie and an Australian Kelpie, both renowned for their herding prowess. Originating from working lines, these dogs are typically medium-sized, boasting an athletic build, alert expression, and a coat that can vary in length and color, often reflecting either parent breed. Temperamentally, they are highly intelligent, energetic, and possess a strong desire to work or be engaged, making them excellent candidates for advanced obedience, agility, or other canine sports. Due to their high energy levels and need for mental stimulation, Border Kelpies thrive in active families who can provide ample exercise and training; they are generally not suited for apartment living. While generally robust, potential health considerations can include those common to their parent breeds, such as hip and elbow dysplasia, and certain eye conditions. Early socialization and consistent training are crucial for a well-adjusted companion.
