At just 8 weeks old, Patsy has already overcome more than any puppy should. Found alone as a stray by animal control, this sweet little Border Collie/Lab mix could have had a very different story — but instead, Patsy has shown everyone around her just how full of love and trust her tiny heart truly is. Patsy is the kind of puppy who wants nothing more than to be close to her people. Her gentle, affectionate personality makes it impossible not to fall in love with her. She loves playing with her foster siblings and learning how much fun it is to just be a puppy. Because she is still so young, Patsy would adapt beautifully to almost any home environment. Whether you are a family with children, another playful dog, or someone looking for a loyal companion to grow with, Patsy is ready to become part of your life and your heart. Like any young puppy, Patsy is still working on her crate and potty training, but she is eager to learn and thrives with patience, love, and consistency. We expect her to grow to around 50 pounds when fully grown. Patsy’s past may have started with uncertainty, but her future deserves to be filled with safety, happiness, and a family who will love her forever. Could that family be yours? Patsy has been dewormed, microchipped, vaccinated for her current age. Since she is not yet spayed, Patsy is not available for adoption outside of the counties contiguous to Bedford County.
