About Daisy

Daisy is a young Border Collie mix currently in foster care near Des Moines, Iowa, after being left at a groomer in Oklahoma with her sibling, Bo. Now safe and ready for her forever home, she brings a delightful mix of playfulness and affection. Daisy loves belly rubs, chasing bugs, and curling up with a cozy blanket. She’s filled with puppy curiosity and energy, but also cherishes moments with her humans. While Daisy is on her journey toward being house trained and is learning the basics like sitting for treats, she's still in need of a patient adopter willing to guide her through the process. She may feel nervous around unfamiliar noises, so a nurturing environment will help her gain confidence. Daisy is great with children, cats, and other dogs, making her an ideal addition to a loving family. She will be adopted under a spay contract with a fee of $500, which includes reimbursement upon proof of spay. Vaccinations are up to date, and she is microchipped.
