A little about them
Haven, also known as MeeMaw, is a sweet senior Australian Shepherd/Border Collie mix fostered in Lincolnton, North Carolina. After years as a stray, she is enjoying the comforts of indoor life and is ready for a peaceful forever home.
Haven loves cozy beds, healthy meals, gentle affection, leisurely walks, naps, snacks, and relaxing alongside her people. She is friendly with everyone she meets and has a special fondness for men.
Ideal Home
Haven needs a quiet home without young children or lots of activity, plus a securely fenced yard. No electric fences, as she does not hear well. She gets along with other dogs but mostly ignores them. She has not been tested with cats, though she shows no prey drive.
Ongoing Health
Haven's heartworm treatment is complete, and her ear infection and intestinal worms have resolved. She has gained weight and is up to date on veterinary care. She is spayed and microchipped.
Training & Support
Haven walks beautifully on leash, rides well in the car, and is well-behaved in the house. She is not a fan of crates and does not need one. She prefers relaxed strolls to jogging.
