Skeeter's Story

Skeeter is a 5 year old, 35-40 lb Kelpie/Heeler mix who is guaranteed to steal your heart. She’s friendly, intelligent, and eager to be part of everything you do.<br/><br/>True to her breeds, Skeeter is incredibly smart and highly trainable. She already knows a variety of commands including crate, place, stay, and hold, and is continuing to work on recall. She thrives on structure, praise, and positive reinforcement, and loves having a job or purpose in her daily routine.<br/><br/>Skeeter would do best in an active home where they can give her opportunities to be mentally and physically engaged. Whether it’s walks, adventures, training sessions, or simply being involved in your day to day activities, she wants to be right there with you. She is great with other dogs and also enjoys spending time with other dogs and can happily switch between playtime and relaxing.<br/><br/>Because of her herding instincts, Skeeter has a quirky but manageable habit, she can use her mouth to guide or redirect when she’s trying to communicate. It’s not aggressive, just her being a clever herding breed dog, but she will need a home committed to redirecting and continuing her training in this area.<br/><br/>For this reason, Skeeter would do best in a home without small children, and with someone experienced or familiar with herding breeds who can provide consistency and guidance.<br/><br/>If you’ve got a ranch, she’d be thrilled but it’s not required. What she truly needs is a home that understands her intelligence, gives her structure, and includes her in daily life.<br/><br/>Skeeter is an all around incredible dog who is loyal, fun, smart, and full of personality. With the right person, she’s going to be an amazing companion.
