Willow's Story
Please submit an application at https://bcsave.org/adopt-apply/<br/><br/>Willow is a BC mix pup found as a stray in Fort Worth in June 2025. She appears to be a large border collie/Pap mix, about 23 lbs and 17 1/2 in tall. <br/><br/>Willow is one of the sweetest dogs you will ever met. She is just a little cautious when she meets new people but quickly forgets and loves everyone, male or female. She will jump in your lap for long snuggles and kisses. Her weight and height make it easy to pick her up and carry her around like a sheltie! She knows how to sit and the word off (as in "get off the couch").<br/><br/>At first, Willow was super-reactive to other dogs and the occasional person walking by in public, but has since improved. She currently lives with 7-8 other dogs, but Willow had a month before integrating into the larger pack. If there is another dog in the home, we would recommend a slower introduction and integration period (over a couple of weeks), although the process could be a lot faster with a more submissive / neutral dog. Willow is now very comfortable with her foster brothers and sisters and LOVES to play. She has convinced all the young dogs to play with her, two of whom had never played with any other foster before Willow. <br/><br/>Willow is a whirlwind, racing in the yard after squirrels but will also snuggle with you while you watch TV. She is very food motivated and will also play with toys. She loves tennis balls and toys that crinkle and squeak, particularly a large stuffed chicken from Pets Supplies Plus. She enjoys tug of war with the leash toys with fluff at the end. She is very high energy and has learned how to scale a 3 foot fence so her adopter should have a 6 foot privacy fence. She is crate trained but her foster has started leaving her out and she has done very well, with no items destroyed and no accidents in the house. She is doggy door trained as well. <br/><br/>We think Willow would do well in an experienced home as an only dog (she's great with cats!), or one that is willing to give her the time she needs to get used to any dogs in the family. She is a fun, fantastic pup who just needs a little but of patience (if there are other dogs) to become your best girl!<br/><br/>Willow is being fostered in DFW area (Euless), TX
