Beatrix is a black and white Border Collie mix with classic good looks and a gentle style of her own. Left behind when her former family moved away, she’s found her footing in foster care and is learning quickly. At about a year old, Beatrix is already showing how adaptable and intelligent a Border Collie can be. She gravitates to people once she feels safe, leaning in for affection and revealing her playful, loving side. Beatrix enjoys walks and behaves nicely on leash. She hasn’t had accidents in her foster home or kennel, so house training is going well. Toys and belly rubs are her favorite currency, and if you pay attention, she’ll teach you her preferred snuggle method. While Beatrix is initially shy with new situations, she warms up with a little patience and reassurance. She gets along with other dogs and isn’t fazed by cats.
