Collie x Dalmatian

If anyone ever see's this wonderful mixture needing a home, please let me know.

My darling Lady, and best friend passed away sadly a year ago on the 16th (Yesterday) and was a rescue of this breed.
By far the best ever dog in the world (no matter what you say ) and is sorely missed.

(Actually posted on here about her when someone posted quite a while back about the mixture)

She was a rescue and quite hard-work, but totally rewarding and lived a happy long lived life, and I would jump at the chance to rescue another.
Of course, these days this is becoming one of those new designer breeds, so chances are slim, but our Lady was a wonderful unwanted accident.
It's a high energy breed, so chances are perhaps someone will go into buying a puppy from a breeder and find they cannot handle it, and I will be happy to help out

So if anyone ever see's one, you know where I am!

Thanks guys x

Wow, that could be a very hard mix if you didn't end up with the best of both breeds.

Oh, ours was wonderful.

She loved her walks, two nice long ones a day.
She loved being in the garden (which is good, as so did my mum and dad).
She only barked at the door when it was rung.
She never jumped up, on you or furniture.
She never chewed.
She was house-trained, and wouldn't even poop until off lead.
She didn't chase cars/cats.
She didn't nip or herd, and was never aggressive.
She didn't have a problem with children or small furries, if anything was rather uninterested.
She was always very intelligent, but very calm and wise.
She was very dog savvy, knew when to tell a dog off for bad manners and knew when to play. She actually helped a very dog aggressive collie to become balanced and social, and he was quite her toy-boy! She never got into a dog fight.
She was extremely loyal and obedient - wouldn't go off with anyone else and would never stray. If you told her off, using your tone of voice she would know and come creeping.
She travelled well, and never pulled on the lead.

I can't think what else to say! She was perfect.
At first she was very nervous and untrusting - but she was dumped as a baby on the motorway and we think physically abused as she always had a slight fear of feet, like sudden feet movements and lifting of the leg. At first she was hard to walk on the lead - she didn't know how too! And firstly was sick when in the car, but it didn't take long for her to come round.

Only things she didn't like were baths and the hoover - she would avoid either if she could! And the feet as mentioned.. and being smothered, but she would sit on my feet and I could lie on top of her and she wouldn't mind

Not to mention she never had a single health problem.
