Josie Female Age: 1 Year Weight: 47 lbs Breed: Collie Mix Hi, I'm Josie! I'm a sweet, happy girl with an easygoing personality and a big love for people. My favorite place in the world is right next to my humans—honestly, if I could be velcroed to you on the couch, I would be! I'm always happiest when I'm close to my people, whether we're relaxing at home, going for a walk, or hanging out in the yard. I get along great with other dogs and love playing outside with my dog friends. I've also seen a cat at the vet and didn't pay much attention to it, though I haven't officially lived with one yet. I do best with older kids. The kind person who found me said I didn't seem too sure about little kids, but that may have been because they were bothering my puppies at the time. I'm a pretty well-behaved girl, too. I'm house trained, crate trained, and I walk nicely on a leash. When I first go into my crate, I might bark a little while I settle in, but once I get comfy, I'm perfectly fine. Toys are one of my favorite things! I love balls, rope toys, Nyla bones, and stuffed animals—although I have to admit that stuffed toys don't usually survive very long with me around. Treats are fun too. Sometimes I take a moment to decide about new ones, but I always give them a try... and so far I haven't turned any down! I'm just a cheerful, affectionate girl who settles in nicely at home and loves being part of the family. After some playtime or a nice walk, I'm more than happy to curl up next to you and relax for the evening. If you're looking for a loving companion who will happily follow you around, share the couch, and fill your home with smiles, I might be your perfect match. I can't wait to become your shadow—and your best friend. If you are interested in meeting Josie apply to adopt her at www.causeforcanines.org Adoption fee: $350.
