Texas Tornado

My story

Texas Tornado has opened applications for a new leash holder. Inquire within. Well folks, Texas Tornado, the deaf, white border collie, with an estimated birthdate of 09/23/2023 and weight of 40lbs is here to display what a sentient Bang Energy would be. Let's start with the cons. She's bad a$$ so there's only a few. DEAF. Big Deaf. No sounds entering the brain. Only vibes. Not cat and critter safe. Can be intermittently reactive when she feels unsafe or without clear leadership. Attempts to herd moving vehicles. Can be distracted with a ball. Now for the pros. Buckle in. High ball and prey drive. Crate, leash, house, car trained. (Rides tethered in the car) Spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and dewormed. Excellent social skills with dogs and kids. Knows basic commands with hand signals. Sit, stay/wait, come, good etc. Off lead reliable in rural settings. Comes with an AKC Canine Partners number to be able to participate in AKC sanctioned dogsport trials. Ran a 2.2 mile two dog bikejor in 13:50 on her first ever attempt. 4th place in trial. Completed all lure courses and has her CA title. Extremely motivated in scent work. Works for a ball and can commit to finding numerous complex hides in one go. Still on primary. Excellent mountain biking companion, effortlessly running 15-20 miles in one sitting. Non destructive in the home, safe to be left crated or loose in the day or night. Lovely, intense natural herding aptitude. Could work as a functional cattle dog with a handler able to train with a low level ecollar or vibrational collar. Capable of much, much more than has already been done with her. She is sure to excel at any task or activity involving speed, dexterity, and intelligence. Adoption fee is 2øø and includes a leash, collar, ID tag, food sample, medical records, many additional tools and pieces of her personal equipment for sports and scentwork, and complimentary consultation with a behaviorist to help both parties ace the new partnership. Texas Tornado, AKA Tex, is eligible to be transported anywhere in the USA or Canada to a future handler who will give her an active and involved life like she has now. She would be happy with a sport or working life, or as an active pet to a family who will let her be included for major adventures like biking, backpacking, ultra running etc. There's simply too many good things to say about her and she deserves the absolute best future. ##2532720##
