Lexi ~ Kelpie x, female (On Trial 7/6/17)

Lexi is a 7 month old Kelpie X, who is a very patient, calm, loyal and loving. She is great on the lead either walking or running and would be a wonderful dog to take with you wherever you go. She loves going for walks, however is not overly energetic and happy to relax.

Lexi is used to being home alone and is great outside, when she comes in she loves to snuggle up next to you, or sleep on her pillow. Lexi is definitely not too shy to give you lots of kisses and cuddle on your lap.

She loves her toys, especially playing fetch with a ball, her soft toys and loves playing hide and seek. She is very well trained and will sit and wait for you to say she can eat, or come inside. She loves bones and treats and will patiently wait for you to give them to her. When Lexi is outside she happily entertains herself, playing with toys or lazing in the sun.

She is great with other dogs, during walks she will wait for other dogs to approach her and does not demonstrate aggressive behaviour. She does need a home with high fences as she is a very impressive jumper.

Lexi would be well suited to anyone who will give her a loving home, she is great with kids and other pets, so really just needs someone who will care for her. On occasion Lexi can be a bit timid, for example when in crowds or busy places, she is becoming more comfortable in these environments and would need someone to help her become more comfortable.

Lexi is a wonderful loyal dog, who will form a very strong bond with her owner, giving you all the love she can and will literally become a member of the family.
