Border Collie, Pointer

Jenny's steady gaze looks easily, directly, and intently into your own, and she will not release that eye contact first. She is almost disarming in her little earnest looks, as if there are a whole host of messages she is trying to interpret and deliver.

She is wonderfully affectionate physically, and her sturdy body is happiest when it is pressed closely to your own. She is healthy and strong with beautiful brown and black markings on her face and one black patch on her tail - otherwise she is pure white. Like Mary Ellen, the oldest sister in the Walton family, Jenny takes her role as a sister very importantly, and she bosses her 2 brothers diligently and tirelessly.

Her busy attention to ruling her sibling clan takes a back seat immediately when the prospect of interaction with a human presents. This is when Jenny sits eagerly and expectantly, her entire being poised in a state of readiness to play or hurl herself into your lap. If the game plan involves play, Jenny is tireless, and she seems to possess both the attention span and focus to learn anything - we predict that she would be excellent at any game she is taught, and she has a natural fetching instinct.

If the game plan involves petting, Jenny could stay forever in your lap, nestled in the closest version of a hug of which her body is capable. Although still a young pup she seems capable of ardent devotion and she would bond with an adoptive human very deeply.

Jenny is responsive and alert, and seems to be remarkably bright. She will bring a world of joy and co-discovery to the adoptive human(s) who is seeking a full partnership with a loving, eager and remarkably dear little girl.
