About Jane

Now an adult, this striking black beauty resembles a Border Collie but without the breed's intense herding instincts. Jane is playful and smart. She gets along great with other dogs and enjoys being part of a pack, currently sharing her space with two canine companions. While she's not afraid to stand her ground, often expressing herself with playful growls, her overall demeanor is friendly and good-hearted. Though Jane hasn't had extensive formal training, she learns quickly and aims to please. An ideal adopter would be someone patient, ready to help her refine her basic obedience skills. With her affectionate nature, Jane is ready to become a fun and active companion for the right person. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
