Meet Indy, a two-year-old sweetheart who is equal parts playful, affectionate, and incredibly smart. She is food motivated and learns fast, picking up sit, down, and roll over in a single hour. She walks nicely on leash, rides well in the car, is crate trained and potty trained, and has done great with other dogs. She is also very tolerant of handling and has shown no reaction to having her paws, ears, chest, mouth, or tail touched.
Indy has plenty of athletic energy and would thrive with someone who enjoys an active dog. She loves to run, jump, chase, and play, and she has some serious hops, so an agility-loving home could be a lot of fun for her. She does use her mouth during play, but has not bitten down, and she can get pretty enthusiastic when playing with other dogs. Once playtime is over, though, she is all about her people. She loves belly rubs, couch cuddles, and will happily nudge her head under your hand if she decides she is overdue for affection.
More than anything, Indy wants to bond closely with her person. She is curious, resilient, and very people-focused, and she settles nicely into a home routine. If you are looking for a smart, loving, athletic dog who can keep up with adventures and then curl up beside you at the end of the day, Indy may be your girl.
