Collie (long coat) : : Female : : Senior : : Large
We are looking for a foster home for Cassie, a lovely 12 year old female collie.
She was very happy to meet and be petted by our 16 and 17 year old daughters, my husband and me. She gets along very well with our 4 year old female collie mix who is very subservient to older females. She did not react negatively to our 13 year old jack russell terrior male who jumped in her face and became pushy. She also did not overly push around our 13 year old standard poodle male, but did tell him off appropriately when he knocked her down.
She did NOT however get along well with our 8 year collie female who is the dominant dog in our house. I believe Cassie is also a dominant female and so they clashed. She also chased our cat.
I feel she would do well in a household with subservient or non territorial dogs.
I have no information on how she does with young children.
