About Gypsy

Gypsy is a striking Border Collie with a delightful mix of black and cream fur looking for her forever home. This energetic girl was surrendered due to her playful spirit, which was a bit much for the tiny senior dog in her previous home. Despite initial shyness, she's gradually coming out of her shell and is doing well with her house and crate training. She's friendly and gets along great with other dogs, making her a perfect companion for a household with furry friends. Gypsy does well with kids too, so she could fit seamlessly into a family environment. Keep in mind that she needs a fenced-in yard to keep her safe and engaged. If you’re ready to provide Gypsy with a loving home, reach out to set up a Zoom call to meet her. Don’t wait too long; she’s waiting to bring joy into your life!
