Mindy is the sweetest dog. She is very careful about where she steps and doesn't like stepped on by the other dogs. If she is snuggling she is very careful about where she places her feet never stepping on us or the other dogs. She is loves to snuggle and also loves children.
She does not like young boys with baseball caps. A friend and his son came over and Mindy was down on her belly shaking and crawling to the door trying to get away from the young boy. We figured she must have been teased or tortured as a young pup but a young boy or boys with baseball caps before we found her.
How she was found: We already had two crazy dogs but soft hearted Bud came home one day with this black and tan collie nosed stray. The poor thing was so skinny you could see every rib. She was very tired and slept the first 3 days we had her. We took her to the vet who said she was only 7 months old. Someone had apparently dumped her on a back road. Bud had driven past her on his way home from work for days. She was chasing cars and sleeping in an old tree. He noticed the last day she had run out of energy and wasn't chasing the cars anymore. He stopped opened the passenger door and she jumped up on the seat curled up and fell asleep for the drive home. Someone had definitely dumped her. We discovered animals that are dumped will stay put not look for food and wait for their owner to return. Usually starving to death in the process. If you have an animal you don't want please be responsible and take him/her to a rescue!!! At least the animal has a chance of finding a good home that way.
