🌟 Meet Lady, the incredible 2-year-old Kelpie/Bloodhound mix with a heart as big as Texas and a brain sharper than a tack! Coming straight from Dallas, this adorable lady has been thriving in her foster home—and let me tell you, she’s ready to find her forever family! 💖 Now, let’s talk about this true gem! Lady is affectionate and longs to bond, but she does come with a bit of shyness at first—especially when those hands come her way. She’s like, ‘Whoa there, let’s take it slow, honey!’ But once trust is established, she will shower you with loyalty and love that could light up the darkest room. 🌈 Give this smart cookie a “job” to do, and watch her shine! Lady is eager to learn and will attempt to herd anything that moves like the little working dog she is. She does best in a home without young kiddos and either flying solo or with other dogs who understand her instincts. Consistency, clear boundaries, and training are her love languages, and she responds magnificently to them! Now, let’s talk about those superpowers of hers: - **Wicked smart** & a quick learner — she’s got those brain cells firing! 💡 - **Treat-motivated** — who can resist a yummy snack? 🍖 - A nose that just won’t quit — Lady loves a good sniff and mental games! 🐕‍🦺 - And let’s not forget, she bonds deeply once she feels safe—she’s a true testament to trust! ❤️ But she’s also a work in progress: Lady can be a bit leash reactive and has some resource-guarding tendencies, plus she's still warming up to those pesky hands. The silver lining? With consistent training, she’s been making great strides! Her foster family, with some expert guidance, has already set the tone by helping her see her crate as a cozy haven, which is a major win! 🎉 ✨ Now, let’s chat about Lady’s dream home: - An **adults-only** household (because she’s a mature lady, after all!) - A yard for those speedy zoomies 🌬️ - Someone steady, patient, and oh-so consistent - An adopter ready and excited to continue her training—she’ll reward you endlessly! If you’re looking for a smart, devoted, and downright rewarding companion who’s ready to grow alongside you, then Lady could be the perfect match! 🥰 Are you ready to bring this beauty into your life?
