About Cupcake

Meet Cupcake, affectionately known as Cece! Simply stated, she is a delight! This 36#, 12.5-year-old Sheltie and Border Collie mix proves that age is just a number. She has plenty of pep in her step, a lovely prance when she is happiest, and a zest for life that charms everyone she meets. Cece is friendly, affectionate, confident, curious, observant, and just a bit spicy. She wants to be close to her people, joining in on whatever they are doing. Whether it's accompanying them on a leisurely stroll, supervising backyard activities, or simply lounging nearby for ear and butt scratches, Cece enjoys being part of the family. Her ideal day includes a couple of walks where she can stop and investigate interesting smells along the way. A few tosses of a Frisbee or ball, rolling in the grass, watching birds from the deck, and savoring peanut butter frozen treats are also high on her list of favorites. She is a healthy, happy girl with lots of love to give. If you're looking for a loyal companion for walks, adventures, and cozy evenings, Cece may be the perfect match.

Ideal Home

Cupcake would thrive in a home that appreciates a medium-energy companion. She doesn't need a fenced yard if she can spend time exploring safely on a leash. She's fine with another calm, low-key dog or as the canine center of attention. She does well with cats and even naps alongside her feline friends. Cupcake would do best in a home without young children, as quick movements can startle her. She prefers to dine alone without concern for another dog trying to get at her food dish.

Ongoing Health

Cupcake is completing a 30-day course of doxycycline for Lyme disease as a precaution: she is not symptomatic. She is spayed and up to date on age-appropriate vaccines. Upon adoption, all of our dogs go to their new homes with a collar and harness, leash, starter food, blanket, favorite toys & treats. They are current on flea/tick and heartworm prevention.
