June Bug is a beautiful Border Collie/Shepherd mix with a big personality. This affectionate girl absolutely LOVES people, especially children, and is always ready to share cuddles, belly rubs, and plenty of love! June Bug was found running loose in Arkansas and, sadly, was never claimed. After spending time in a loving foster home, PAWS was asked to help find this wonderful girl the forever family she deserves. If you're looking for a four-legged babysitter, June Bug is ready to volunteer! She adores children of all ages, loves playing with them, and has even been known to curl up on the floor for a nap beside them. She's still learning that jumping up to give hugs isn't always necessary, but her enthusiasm comes from a place of pure love! June Bug gets along with dogs of all sizes, although she does enjoy being the BOSS and can play pretty rough. A submissive canine companion could be a good match, but she'd be equally happy soaking up all the attention herself. She does need to be fed separately from other dogs, although she has no issues with people around her food. This smart girl is housetrained using a doggy door, crate trained, and a quick learner who easily picks up new routines. She may need a little adjustment to a new potty schedule without a doggy door. Crating when home alone is recommended, as her mischievous side occasionally takes over, especially when there's food to be found! She's also wonderful on leash, enjoys outings and social events, and is a terrific traveler who rides quietly while watching the world go by. June Bug's ideal home would be an active, loving family, preferably with children to play with and adore! A fenced yard would be a bonus but isn't required, as long as she gets plenty of exercise, walks, adventures, and family time. June Bug is a fun-loving, affectionate, incredibly smart girl who wants nothing more than to spread happiness wherever she goes. She's ready to give one lucky family a lifetime of loyalty, laughter, cuddles, and unconditional love! All known information about the animal is listed above.
