Meet Indie - courtesy post

Picture
Meet Indie!

Indie is an adorable 3-year-old, 48-lb. Border Collie mix looking for a great home. She’s a very special girl and has been an absolute gift to raise, but her person is struggling with some health issues and cannot provide Indie with the exercise and adventures this wonderful dog needs. 

For exercise she loves playing fetch, taking long unstructured sniffy walks, going on hikes, and running alongside when she’s with a runner.

She also loves to play in the snow and play tug, chew on sticks, meet new people and be out in nature (especially in off-leash areas), plus splashing in the river.

She loves to be around her people and she’s very much a shadow dog —- she’s a real cuddler!

Indie has some minor anxiety and takes daily meds that help her feel more settled. Her person has done a fairly significant amount of training with Indie by herself, and Indie is consistent with the doggie cues that she knows. She’s always excited to learn new things!

Indie is good with other dogs in general. If a strange dog is barking at her on walks, she’ll be passive if she feels uncomfortable — but she’s very food and relationally motivated, making her easy to manage.

She lives with kitties but can get reactive to them, so we think she’d do better in a home without cats. She loves kids — but because she gets excited and happy and playful, she’ll be a better match with older kids.

Indie is crate-trained and often feels better being in a crate on car rides.

Indie is a wonderful dog who’s incredibly sweet and silly. She just may turn out to be the light of your life!

For more info and/or to apply to adopt Indie, send us an email at [email protected]m, telling us a bit about yourself, your home environment and your lifestyle. A volunteer will get back to you shortly. Thanks.

Disclaimer:  The companion animal you are interested in is a courtesy post. Summit Dog Rescue often helps dogs and cats outside our organization to find their forever homes, and these are called "courtesy posts.” By courtesy posting pets from owners and other rescues, we offer our website (and sometimes email assistance) as a resouce to help their pet gain extra exposure. The pet’s bio comes directly from the owner or rescue, and we expect them to provide accurate information, to the best of their knowledge. Summit Dog Rescue in most cases has not met or evaluated these companion animals, so no information about a courtesy post dog or cat is guaranteed. We cannot accept responsibility for any injury or damages to any person or property caused by any courtesy post animals. Courtesy post pets are the sole responsibility of the owner and the adopter. In addition, SDR cannot take these pets in if the courtesy post adoption does not work out. 

Also, although we occasionally might ask you to email us (if you’re interested in adopting a courtesy post pet), it’s just so we can help the owner or rescue connect with applicants. You’ll be adopting your new pet directly from the owner or the other rescue, not from Summit Dog Rescue. Please let us know if you’re comfortable with us sharing your information with the owner of the courtesy post pet.​
