Zara, 7/8 month old border collie/hound, female

Zara is a shy-at-first, strong-willed girl with a big personality just waiting to shine. Born on May 31, 2025, she’s still a young pup — but she already knows exactly what she wants… and she’s not afraid to tell you about it.

She’s delightfully hard-headed in the most entertaining way. Once she trusts you, Zara is truly the best kind of dog — goofy, expressive, and very vocal. She doesn’t just live in your home… she provides running commentary. Expect playful “arguments,” dramatic opinions, and daily laughs.

Zara loves to climb, explore, and keep an eye on the birds. Her curious, adventurous spirit makes her a great match for someone who enjoys an active dog with a busy mind. Mostly white with a touch of black, her unique look perfectly matches her bold and expressive personality.

She does great with kids and has done well with the family dogs she’s met. With new people, Zara can be timid at first, but once trust is built, her silly, confident side shines through in the best way.

Zara is currently working on basic commands and is not leash trained just yet. She’ll thrive with a patient adopter who understands that smart, independent dogs need consistency, structure, and positive reinforcement to truly flourish.

Weighing about 27 lbs right now, Zara would do best in a home that appreciates a dog with opinions, humor, and lots of personality. If you’re looking for a companion who will keep life interesting and make you laugh every single day, Zara might just be your perfect match.
