WARNING: Astrid Comes With Turbo Mode Installed!
Looking for a dog who thinks every day is an adventure? Meet Astrid!
At just 4 to 5 months old and 33 pounds, this gorgeous Border Collie/Australian Shepherd mix is all brains, bounce, and boundless enthusiasm. She’s the kind of puppy who wakes up each morning asking, “What’s our next project?”
Astrid is:
Spayed
Current on vaccines
Super smart (seriously...she catches on FAST!)
Doing great with crate training
Rocking potty training
Already enrolled in puppy classes
Dog friendly and would LOVE a playful canine buddy
Now let’s keep it real... Astrid is not a Netflix marathon partner.
This girl is powered by zoomies, curiosity, and working dog instincts. She’ll happily trade a lazy afternoon for a hike, a game of fetch, learning new tricks, or conquering an agility course. In fact...she’d probably be an agility superstar!
Because she’s a herding breed, Astrid does have a tendency to nip while playing, which is a natural instinct. For that reason, she’d do best in a home without toddlers or small children. She’ll thrive with an active family that understands working breeds and is excited to give her the exercise and mental challenges she craves.
Cats? We’re not sure yet.
Dogs? Absolutely! A fun dog friend would be the cherry on top.
If you’ve been dreaming of an adventure buddy who can keep up on trails, learn impressive tricks, and make you laugh every single day, Astrid is ready to punch her ticket into your heart.
Astrid isn’t looking for just any home. She’s looking for her people...the ones who see a whirlwind of energy and think, “Perfect. Let’s go have some fun.”
