About Patsy

Patsy is a lovely black and white girl who was abandoned with another sweet dog, Pippa, several months ago. They have been gracious guests at our adoption center, yet Patsy is eager to find her forever home. Likely a mix of border collie, McNab shepherd, and lab, she has a big heart and bright personality. Patsy is smart and food motivated, which makes training a breeze. She adores her toys and swimming is one of her favorite activities. She's great on walks, whether on or off-leash, and is getting better with voice recall. While this exuberant puppy is learning not to jump on people, she rides well in the car. Clear, consistent training will help her thrive, along with ample exercise and mental stimulation. Patsy would be a loyal companion, perfect for hiking or running. She's good with both people and other dogs, adapting easily to cats she's met at the shelter. A house without toddlers is ideal for her, and having a dog buddy would provide her with the company she loves. At about 50 pounds, she's spayed, up to date on vaccines, dewormed, and will be microchipped before adoption. The minimum donation for her adoption is $200. If you'd like to meet Patsy or her friend Pippa, please contact Companion Animal Foundation at 707-296-4629 or visit 3954 Jacobs Ave., just north of Eureka, Wednesday through Friday from noon to 4 PM or Saturday 11 AM to 3 PM.
