About Nibbler

Meet Nibbler! This spirited 45-pound Border Collie mix is eagerly searching for her forever home. Nibbler may not look exactly like a traditional Border Collie, but her heart and personality shine through. Whether it's joining you for yard work, going for a walk, or snuggling on the couch, she wants to be by your side. Nibbler is smart and sensitive, learning quickly while occasionally testing her boundaries. Known for her adventurous spirit, Nibbler excels in her basics. She uses a dog door effortlessly, signals when she needs to go outside, walks well on a leash, and knows commands like sit. Right now, she’s honing her skills in lying down and patiently waiting for mealtime. Nibbler adores people and is particularly fond of kids and larger dogs, making her a perfect fit for an active family. However, she’s not a fan of small dogs, as she can be a bit assertive and protective around them. While she’s met horses and cats, her enthusiasm for new friends doesn’t always translate; she'll need gentle introductions with any small creatures. With an endearing knack for stealing socks or chicken nuggets if left unattended, Nibbler has a playful side that will keep you entertained. She cherishes her kennel, which serves as her cozy escape where she dreams up her next adventure. Given her energy and intelligence, a crate is recommended during long absences. Nibbler simply wants to belong. If you feel a connection reading this, she might just be the dog for you. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
