Meet Disney! Don’t let her small stature (23lbs) and shy nature fool you, this girl is a FIRECRACKER! We lost our heart-dog in a freak accident Christmas morning and this little girl showed up as a stray Boxing Day. We decided to take her in as a personal foster; vaccinate, spay, and microchip her in his memory. She is all healed up from her spay on March 11th and now has the best chance at finding her ‘happily ever after’ with a family of her own. Disney is housebroken, crate trained, knows some basic commands, and well on her way to perfect leash manners. She has been exposed to livestock (though never worked them), loves our house cat, and leaves my chickens alone. However she is a mischievous spirit and I would not leave her unsupervised with them just yet. The vets believes her to be about a year old and a Heeler Australian Shepard mix. All we know is she is 100% good girl. She does appear to have allergies of some sort that make her a bit itchy, but we have it managed with food and it costs about $100 a month to feed her on it. It also turns her poop bright green which your kids will get a kick out of! Now because Disney spent the first year of her life as a stray she is very very shy when meeting new people and new dogs. She had a couple of puncture wounds when she was brought to us and would flinch and run away if we moved too fast. She is still holds that cautious nature with new people and will need time, patience, and understanding from her new family. That means no off leash time for awhile, slow introduction to rambunctious dogs an toddlers, and the understanding she won’t be the dog to instantly fall in love with you. She also is the dog to fear “leak” a little if you yell or handle her roughly. She does best with positive reinforcement training strategies. However give it a week with her and watch the switch flip. This girl is the definition of loyal. She is a tiny Diva and just wants all the love to make up for all the time she went without. When she decides you’re safe she is the ultimate Velcro dog. She is also increadibly smart and has a high working drive. She will need to go either to an acreage/farm home, someone who will bring her to work so she gets lots of exercise, or a family that gets she is a heeler and will need a ton of mental stimulation and exercise. We will not be adopting Disney out to an city home at this time as we do not feel based on her shyness and exercise needs it would fair to her or her new family. Potential adopters with small young children who do not have good dog manners yet, may not also be a fit for her. Disney has a foster home and safe place with us as long as she needs, and that includes if her potential adoptive family takes her and decides she is not a fit. We love her to death, and cannot wait to see her thrive in her new life ❤️ Please reach out for a meet and great if interested in this sweet girl. We are located in the Brooks area, but travel to Calgary, Edmonton, Medicine Hat, drumheller, and Camrose often if you’d like to meet her.
