UPDATE: October 1st
Bryn is just amazing! She has been to two rescue events in the last few weeks: Petsmart & NHS's Walk for the Animals. She is doing wonderfully! Bryn is still unsure sometimes, but she is becoming social with people and liking it. She will visit with people and likes pets. She is aware of new environments, but doesn't want to hide as before. She did really well, even at the Walk for the Animals, which is very busy with lots of people and dogs walking by the rescue table! Bryn absolutely LOVES meeting new dogs. She is a riot! Bryn wants to play with many of new dogs she meets - she play bows and jumps around, she is soooo funny! Bryn is doing really well and she is such a character.


BIO
Bryn is a black tri female, purebred border collie with alot of ticking (speckles) on her face and legs. She is around 7-8 months old.

Bryn is settling in well to life inside and is ready for adoption.  We are continuing to teach her the ground rules for what she can and cannot play with as well as working on going potty outside.  She has had a couple "accidents" but I caught her and I think she is getting the idea. She is earning more freedom all the time.


She can be skittish at times, not fearful or aggressive, just unsure, when I get up and move around she will get up and run behind the chair or under the table, but once I settle in she relaxes.  She's not fearful of strange objects like a camera or strange/loud sounds.  Pets, ear scratches and kisses are a good thing; although she won’t roll over for a belly rub, yet. 



Bryn is learning to walk on a leash, it can be a challenge to put the leash on but once on, she is ok.  We have been using a flexi-leash so she can explore at times however mostly it’s tight to walk next to us.  Basic obedience will begin shortly.   


She is medium energy, with the potential for higher; yet settles down in the house.

 

She gets along well with our dog and has had no food or toy aggression to speak of.  Bryn is crate trained, goes in fairly easily.  Her crate is moved to the bedroom at night to sleep in, if she wants. But she has the option of sleeping in her crate if she wants or on the dog bed next to it.
