Description
Dog Breed: Australian Shepherd / Border Collie (medium coat). Aussie/Border Collie mix female puppy Welcome Calico aka Cali! Cali is a 12-14 week old Aussie / Border Collie mix who was bred on a ranch here in SLO County. This real life teddy bear was a local owner surrender and boy are we glad she’s in our care. We won’t go into detail here but this dog is extremely lucky to have landed with us. She is confident, high energy, smart as a whip, and opinionated about the crate but sweet as pie in every other way imaginable. She’s a blank slate looking for someone with the experience and stamina to raise a puppy right. Cats, critters, livestock unknown but this is the perfect age for no-brainer integrations. Cali is microchipped, on a vaccine schedule, and can go home on a spay contract. Cali is in Arroyo Grande,CA More photos, video, and updates: .facebook/.cchdrescue/ search in posts and photo albums.

Overview:
The Australian Shepherd, despite its name, actually originated in the western United States during the 19th century, bred primarily for herding livestock on ranches. These striking dogs are medium-sized with a sturdy build, often sporting captivating merle coats (blue or red) and piercing blue, amber, or marbled eyes, sometimes with two different colors (heterochromia). Known for their exceptional intelligence and high energy, Aussies possess a strong work drive and thrive on having a "job" to do, whether it's agility, obedience, or extensive exercise. Their temperament is generally loyal, affectionate, and good-natured with their families, though they can be reserved with strangers. Due to their high exercise requirements and need for mental stimulation, they are best suited for active families or individuals with ample outdoor space and a commitment to training; apartment living is generally not ideal. Potential owners should also be aware of common health concerns like hip and elbow dysplasia and certain eye conditions, including Collie Eye Anomaly (CEA) and Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA).
