Reston Pet of the Week: Liberty

Meet Liberty, a young Collie in need of a forever home who is this week’s Reston Pet of the Week. Here is what her friends at Collie Rescue Inc. have to say about her:

Meet Liberty! Isn’t she a major cutie? She is a mix of various breeds, and sometimes those make the cutest pups!

Liberty is a young gal who is about 1-to-2 years old and weighs 20 pounds. Liberty is sweet and gentle. Everyone who meets her falls in love because she is such a cuddle bug. Even though she is a puppy, she is not high energy and does not require a ton of exercise to wear her out. However, she does like to run around and play each day, especially with her toys.

She loves to play with other dogs, and we are hoping to find her a home where she will have another young dog to play with. She also would do best in a home without younger children. She also likes to nibble on some things, which is normal for a puppy like her.

Overall, Liberty loves to be the center of loving attention! We are teaching Liberty to walk on a leash and get acclimated to new sights and sounds. She gets nervous in new surroundings and around new dogs, but once she learns that everything will be OK, she eases right in and joins in on the fun! She will be a wonderful ‘cuddle bug’ for a loving family!

Contact CRI if you’re interested in learning more about Liberty. If you are interested in rescuing a collie, please complete the short adoption questionnaire. Our standard adoption fee is $350.
