Betsy Blue

Meet Betsy Blue, the wiggly, talkative, piglet-sounding sweetheart you didn't know you needed in your life! Betsy is about two years old and, while we can't be certain since she's a rescue, our best guess is that she's a Catahoula Leopard Dog and Pittie mix. With her one blue eye and one brown eye, her soft, floppy ears, and her gorgeous coloring, she is as stunning as she is silly.

At first, Betsy can be a little hesitant when meeting new people. She will do her signature drive-by bump just to test you out before deciding you're worthy of her wiggles. But once she warms up, you will see a whole new side of her joyful, snorty, and downright hilarious personality. Her foster says she sounds like a piglet when she gets excited and has been known to jump for joy when her favorite people walk into the room. Once you're in Betsy's inner circle, you'll be greeted with wags, wiggles, and the most loving gaze you could imagine. This girl has a deep love for her people. You can see just how loving and silly this girl can be in her video: https://youtu.be/s42gtTUfaQg?si=chzlVTRf8K1Stl5r

Ideal Home

Betsy is an active girl who loves her walks and is a dream on the leash, trotting right beside you and checking in with sweet eye contact. Back at home, she's a toy enthusiast, especially with small plush cat toys. She is also a huge foodie and treat-motivated, which makes training easy. Betsy would do best with a family who understands the beauty of patience and would thrive in a quieter home where she can truly decompress, gain confidence, and learn that the world isn't such a scary place. Older kids who can respect her space and let her come around on her own terms would be a great match.

Ongoing Health

No specific health conditions are mentioned in the listing.

Training & Support

Betsy is smart and picks up new commands quickly, loving quality time learning with you. She has lived with other dogs and cats in her foster home. While she can be shy with other dogs at first, she blossoms into a playful companion once she feels safe. She has also done well with cats, proving capable of settling in peacefully and even wrestling with her feline foster siblings. Dog-savvy cats are definitely the best fit.
