“Heidi”
My name is Heidi. Welcome to my page. I am a Border Collie. I was adopted in January 2007 from the San Diego Humane Society in San Diego, CA. I have been a member of the Standifird clan ever since then. Here is a bit more information about me:
- I was about 1.5 years old when adopted, which means I was born around July 15, 2005.
- I am a female and weight something in the 45 lbs range but I would prefer not to say for sure.
- I am very social with people and especially with other dogs. I am constantly trying to get my friend Chewy to play with me. We play great together, just not enough in my mind.
- I love to be trained and have tried to respond accordingly. I absolutely love to play tug-a-war. Don’t let my size full you. I’m a top notch tug-a-war player.
- Walks and runs are great. Getting Chewy to play with me, even better.
- I love the attention and will take as much as I can get. Belly rubs, head pats, paws shakes, I love it all (Chewy and I share this trait in common).
- I love to bounce around and play with others. However, if need be, I can entertain myself. I am particularly fond of chasing toys I’ve tossed in the air myself. It’s tougher then you think - give it a try some time. Or better yet, toss a toy my way.
- In terms of food, I like it but not nearly as much as Chewy and PJ. They’re crazy for the treats. Don’t get me wrong. I like a good treat. However, given a choice, I’d rather play.
I’ve provided some links below to give you more information about life with dogs. I love human companionship and encourage you to adopt one of my friends from your local humane society (e.g., the San Diego Human Society). And, if you happen to be going to an off leash dog park, feel free to send me an e-mail at heidi@standifird.org. I’d love to join you.
