Australian Shepherd

Chibi (which means "little one") is a one-of-a-kind dog! She is a year and a half, and ready for fun! This girl would be a great addition to an active household. She loves going for long walks and playing in the backyard. She will entertain herself with a fuzzy squeaky toy, but she would rather have you play with her! Chibi is an energetic dog, but she knows how to settle down for the evening and cuddle up on the couch with you. She'll chew on a bone or Kong nicely, and she is fully crate trained. She has been kenneled during the day and sleeps in a kennel at night. Chibi is potty trained and even lets you know that she has to go out! This smart girl already knows how to sit, down, and stay. Obedience classes would be a wonderful addition to her life and they will keep her brain challenged! She plays well with other dogs, and she prefers larger dogs. She is 17.5" tall and about 30 pounds. She does have quite a bit of Aussie herding in her, and she will chase small, running children. (Why not? They're fun to keep in line!) She leaves cats alone and doesn't mess with smaller dogs. She is wary of strangers at first, but warms up quickly and giving her a treat is an added bonus! Interested in agility? This dog has the drive and the smarts to do it. If you want a wonderful companion and walking buddy, Chibi is the dog for you! Chibi is spayed, micro-chipped, and up to date on shots. She is being fostered in Nebraska.
