ADOPTED (S) 12-16-12 – The only thing more beautiful than Willa is her disposition.  She is a happy-go-lucky girl who is always ready for adventure and she is incredibly enthusiastic.  She loves people and enjoys spending time with her human(s), is very eager to please and she thrives on praise and encouragement. She is very intelligent, and she is sensitive to even the slightest change in tone of voice.

WE HAVE A VIDEO OF WILLA SO YOU CAN SEE HOW SWEET SHE IS:  VIDEO

This girl was found as a stray outside of Memphis, TN.  Willa has been socialized and temperament tested; she passed with flying colors and she is ready for her own home today.  Willa is very intelligent and she loves to learn.  She is in excellent health, spayed and up-to-date on her shots.

ABOUT THE BREED: The best thing about a Border Collie is its willingness to learn. They are dogs that love to have a “job”, like helping to pick up the dirty laundry etc. and can be taught to do this. This is not cruel, they have been bred for generations to be working dogs and they enjoy nothing more than helping around the house or garden.

The personality of the Border Collie is not quite as variable as their physical characteristics, but each dog will have his or her own distinctive temperament. As a whole the breed is very gentle and loving, however they are protective and will make excellent watchdogs.

The Border Collie is a watcher. They will watch what the family does, watch what other pets do and particularly watch what their owner does. These dogs seem to be able to learn by observation, which is probably why they are such outstanding dogs. The Collie is a wonderful dog for people. They are exceptionally responsive, and are serious perfectionists, meaning that they will do everything they can to make it right after they have done wrong.

Willa is extremely loyal to her people and she is perfectly content with doing any task you may set for her. If you’re looking for a sweet companion to share your life with, then Willa is your girl; you will have many happy years together!  Please consider making her a part of your family today.

PLEASE TAKE A MINUTE TO CHECK OUT THE SECTION BELOW

RDVG wants to provide you with as much information as we can because some of our mix breeds you might not be familiar with. The below section on “About the Breed” offers information on some of the Breed Characteristics, Children & Pets, Behavior and Personality, Temperament and more.

It is important to point out that in addition to the breed, there is an enormous variety in the way a dog acts and reacts to the world around him. In the end, your dog’s preferences and personality are as individual as you are–and if you can accept that– then you’re bound to enjoy each other.

Children & Pets

Animal Behavior Guidelines

Many children, especially very young ones, do not realize that pets are living animals and not toys. Failing to teach a child how to handle pets properly can result in suffering on the part of the pet and, in some cases, injury to the child. Taking introductions slowly will allow you to introduce family dogs and your children safely

Puppy Behavior, Growth & Development

Each stage of Puppy Growth and development is fascinating; by the time it reaches its first birthday a puppy is considered a mature, adult dog. Puppy Growth rate is fast compared to humans, just compare a puppy of 8 weeks to a baby of the same age.

One of the most common questions asked about a puppy’s growth and development rate refers to the eventual size of the puppy. How big will the puppy grow? How can you determine the adult size of a puppy? A young puppy is tiny and cute – everyone loves puppies! But will the puppy be suited to your environment? How much exercise will be required for a full grown dog? Will the puppy be a suitable pet for children? The breed of the puppy will determine the answers to these questions. A general response to the size and growth rate of a puppy and the adult size of a puppy is therefore not possible – it needs to be specific to the puppy’s breed.
