Annie

Hi, my name is Annie! I'm a 2 year old Aussie mix. I am a young, active, playful herding breed. I’m looking for a family who has owned dogs like me before so they know that I need lots of exercise. Not only physical exercise but mental stimulation as well. I’m really smart and if someone doesn’t give me a job to do, I make my own! Like rearranging rugs, unstuffing my toys and I can even take your clothes off the line. ? Do you have a cat? I don’t want to hurt the cat, I just think it’s great to chase them when they run, so your cat may not like me. I’m a real party animal and love to be right where my people are! I’m sweet and snuggly after a good run! I know some basic commands and I walk well on a leash, but I do need some work on not jumping up, so maybe not a great fit for young kids because I may accidentally knock them over. I love car rides, walks and have even learned to run next to a bike! I'm a little picky about the dogs I will wrestle with and I need to work on my dog skills but I am improving with each interaction. If you are interested in meeting me to see if we are a good match put in an application at hopesafehouse.org Adopter must live within 75 miles of Racine, WI. Adoption fee is $300 plus a $100 deposit for mandatory training class. Fee includes neuter/spay at our approved vet clinic, microchip, age-appropriate vaccines and 30 day health certificate.
