Chica

Chica is a sweet and gentle companion, weighing in at a perfect 45 lbs. While generally calm and well-behaved, she has a playful side and gets wonderfully energetic when greeting her beloved owner after a period apart. This intelligent girl is fully housebroken, travels well in the car, and absolutely adores her toys, especially squeaky ones and chews. She's a perfect houseguest, showing no destructive tendencies when left alone and not requiring a crate. Chica is also well-mannered on a leash and displays no resource guarding issues with her food or toys.

As a Labrador Retriever and Border Collie mix, Chica inherits a wonderful blend of traits. Labradors are known for their friendly, outgoing nature and eagerness to please, while Border Collies contribute intelligence and a desire for activity. This combination means Chica is highly trainable and enjoys engaging with her people. Her short coat is relatively easy to maintain, requiring low grooming effort and moderate shedding. Her moderate energy level means she enjoys daily walks and playtime in a secure yard.

Chica is looking for a loving home where she can be the sole canine companion, as she has shown difficulty co-existing with other dogs consistently in the past. Due to a slightly skittish nature, she is best suited for a home without small children, though she has met older children well. An active family who can provide her with regular exercise and mental stimulation, such as running in the yard, would be ideal. She loves people and greets everyone appropriately, promising to be a devoted and affectionate addition to the right family.
