Lolly Australian Kelpie Mix Orlando, FL

3-4yrs old. She is a small/medium size weighing about 30lbs. Timid girl (has shown great improvement now since taking her in ago). She was rescued from a shelter along with her newborn pups.


UPDATE FROM FOSTER - 10/15 :
"Lolly is a very sweet girl. When she was rescued, she was extremely scared of everything when she arrived (video on facebook).

Since then, Lolly has blossomed into a very sweet loving dog. She still does get scared in new surroundings and takes a little while to warm up to new people, but once she knows she can trust you, she will be your best friend. Lolly does get very excited for attention and loves belly rubs. She has not given kisses but she is not afraid to stick her nose in your face to let you know when she wants your attention.

She is crate trained and is partially house trained. She does have accidents when she gets scared. She rides very well in cars. She does well on a harness and leash. She is good for baths and will need to be brushed about once a week. She does shed some. She is protective of her food around cats, especially (resource-guarding...probably due to her previous home life). Due to this, her foster requests that she does not go to a home with cats. (I'd probably suggest no small dogs either). Otherwise, she does well with dogs and cats after slow introductions.

Lolly is a bit hand shy about anything going over her head. She just gets a little nervous. We have been working with her to help this. It would just need to be reinforced by her new owner.

She would do well in a quieter home with, hopefully, someone who is around often. She will just need to be worked with slowly to help experience the world and grow more confident in her surroundings. Given love, patience, and time - Lolly can become a truly amazing dog."

UPDATE 8/2021: Lolly has improved. She's loosened up even more. She likes belly rubs. :)
