About Breezy

Meet Breezy. Breezy is a 2-year-old Border Collie mix with a curious spirit and a heart full of affection. She spent the winter roaming north of Marshalltown, where a kind homeowner took the time to gain her trust before she was brought to Paws of Hope Animal Rescue. Though Breezy was recently returned after not finding the right match with another dog, she has the potential to thrive in a calm home. With proper introductions, she might do well with another respectful dog or could shine as the only dog in the household. Breezy is playful and ready for a patient adopter who can help her build confidence and enjoy a fresh start. Her adoption fee covers vaccinations, spay, microchip, and health testing.
