Panda is an affectionate, calm, and playful 8-9-year-old Collie mix weighing 53 pounds—with just the right mix of old-soul wisdom and a little spunky charm. He’s house-trained, crate-trained (though he prefers to free roam), and an expert cuddler who still loves to play and explore. Sweet, gentle, and easygoing with moderate energy, Panda enjoys belly rubs, leisurely walks around the lake, and lounging on the patio while bird-watching. He gets along well with medium to large dogs but isn’t recommended for homes with cats or small dogs. He’d thrive with a work-from-home adopter or a quiet family who’ll appreciate his steady companionship and love for lazy afternoons. Panda may have a few gray hairs, but he still has plenty of pep in his step—especially when he’s chasing bugs, frogs, or lizards. He’s truly the gentle shadow who’ll be right by your side, whether you’re sweeping, cooking, or relaxing. Adoption applications can be found on our website: www.strongpawsrescue.org
