About Panda

Panda is an affectionate, calm, and playful 8-9-year-old Collie mix weighing 53 pounds. He blends old-soul wisdom with a dash of spunky charm. House-trained and crate-trained, Panda prefers to roam freely but still enjoys cuddles and playtime. He loves leisurely walks around the lake, belly rubs, and lounging on the patio while bird-watching. This gentle guy gets along well with medium to large dogs but isn't suited for homes with cats or small dogs. Panda would thrive with a work-from-home adopter or a quiet family who values steady companionship and lazy afternoons. Despite a few gray hairs, he has plenty of energy, especially when chasing bugs or lizards. Whether you're sweeping, cooking, or relaxing, Panda will be your gentle shadow, always by your side.
