Oh, hello you! Ivy here.

I've been waiting eight years to find my person—someone who'll match my energy, keep me close, and love me through all my yips and worry whines.

They wrote that I love to play. Understatement. I'd hike, fetch, and nap with you, in that order.

I'm still young and full of beans, with a whole lot of love (and the occasional zoomie) saved up for the right person.

Born and (almost) raised right here in Garden City.

Here's the thing — I can't tell if we'd truly click until I know a little about you. Sign in (it's free) and I'll size up your place, say hello to any dogs you've got — or be your very first — and give you my honest read on whether we'd be a match.

If all goes well, I could be curled up with my new pack by Halloween — maybe yours, whether you adopt me or just help me get noticed.

Either way, thank you for seeing me today. That part mattered more than you know. — Ivy

About Ivy

Ivy is an 8-year-old Australian Cattle Dog with boundless energy and enthusiasm for life. She is food motivated, loves to play with squeaky toys, and is crate trained and house trained. Ivy needs a secure fenced yard or to be kept on leash at all times, as her impulse control can be unreliable. She is dog friendly but wary of other dogs and cannot live with cats, small pets, or farm animals. Ivy does best with experienced owners who understand herding dog temperament, can provide calm leadership, set clear boundaries, and are prepared for her vocal nature—she yips when happy, whines when worried, and barks frequently. She requires a home where she won't be left unattended, needs consistent exercise and mental stimulation, and benefits from owners who can manage her interactions with new people and new situations.
