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. She 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.

Betsy is an active girl who loves her walks, and she is an absolute dream on the leash. She will trot right beside you, checking in with sweet eye contact to make sure you're enjoying yourself as much as she is. Back at home, she's a toy enthusiast. Her favorite playthings are actually small plush cat toys. She will toss them into the air, chase them around, and keep herself entertained with the tiniest of stuffies. She is also a huge foodie, totally motivated by treats, which makes her not only fun but easy to train. Betsy is a smart girl too! She picks up new commands within a day or so and loves to spend quality time learning with you.

Betsy has lived with other dogs in her foster home and, while she can be shy and a little unsure at first, she blossoms once she feels safe. With time and patience, she turns into a playful companion who enjoys running, chasing, and being chased. She has also done well living with cats, she has proven herself capable of settling in peacefully with them. She even wrestles with her feline foster siblings!! Dog-savvy cats are definitely the best fit!

Ideal Home

Because Betsy can be slow to open up to new people, she would do best with a family who understands the beauty of patience. She 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 for her. Once she trusts you, though, Betsy bonds hard. She'll be your devoted best friend, your walking buddy, your toy-tossing partner, and your snuggly couch companion.
