Fawn Merle

My story

    Meet Fawn Merle! Fawn Merle is a high-energy female Border Collie/Australian Shepherd mix, born on 2/2/25! She is a beautiful girl with lots of love to give!   Like any other pup, she loves running around and playing hard! And also like most herding breed pups, she can be a bit chompy, but is doing great at being redirected onto toys. She really enjoys chewing on things, so plenty of chew toys are a must! Also, experience with high-energy/working breeds is highly preferred. And while she has been good with the kids she met, older kids (10+) will be best for her.   Due to breeding, Fawn merle was born with a preventable genetic trait called "double-merle," which mostly affects pigmentation, eyes, and ears. Fawn is deaf and has vision only in her right eye. Despite these obstacles, she continues to show she can do just as much as other pups! Since she is deaf and visually challenged, a fenced yard will be required to ensure she has a safe space to play and exercise.   Her foster momma is a certified dog trainer, so Fawn is already learning certain behaviors such as a hand touch, sitting, and lying down with a combination of food/toy rewards, and tactile touch. To continue good behaviors and practices, the foster/trainer has offered to contribute a training session for Fawn's adopters before going to her new home, as well as training support for LIFE.  You can apply to adopt this gorgeous and trained girl by going to the website below and completing an adoption application.     An Adoption Application for this dog can be found and submitted online. http://www.angelsrescue.org/adopt/adoption-forms  Please be sure to like our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/angelsrescue.  Email inquiry@angelsrescue.org  Note: Some apartments and neighborhoods have breed restrictions.
