About Lil' Bit

Meet Lil' Bit! This 10-month-old, 30 lb female is a vibrant blend of Labrador Retriever and Border Collie traits, packed into a short-coated package of joy. She's playful and a little chaotic, always ready to explore, chew on her toys, and entertain herself. Lil' Bit has a knack for learning and already knows how to sit, plus she's house trained and sleeps through the night. She’s currently fine-tuning her crate training. Lil' Bit loves the company of other dogs, bringing her high energy into every interaction. While she can be a bit jumpy when excited, she's improving on keeping her paws on the floor to receive all the love and attention she craves. However, future adopters should note that she tends to vocalize in her crate, making a more spacious home preferable for her. Though she’s eager to find a home, children and cats have not yet been tested, so those introductions will require careful observation. Lil' Bit thrives with guidance and affection, and with continued training, structure, and playtime, she has all the potential to become a loyal companion.
