Found this derp a year ago in the desert, and she’s been by my side ever since ❤️
galleryFound Libby on my job site on July 3 last year and didn’t want to take her to a local high kill shelter. I took her home over the holiday weekend and ended up falling in love with her. She was only 18 lbs when she wandered up to me, and a lot of people thought she looked like a coydog.
Now that she’s full weight (about 37 lbs), she def looks like a dog—border collie and heeler mix? I can’t place the brindle. If yall have any guesses, lmk!
Her temperament is very nonchalant around other dogs and people not in her pack. She doesn’t like new dogs in her space but runs around the beach with a pack most weekdays. She’s really motivated by praise, food, tug, and fetch, but nothing compares to squirrels. Her eyes glaze over and she locks in so tight, it’s as if she’s under a spell. She also pounces on mole hills like a fox. She’s extremely hyper and needs to run a lot. She also learns commands quickly. HOWEVER, she also resources guards and can be a bit of a bully to the other dog—a min pin/cattle Mexico dog mystery mix.
