Betty Maremma Sheepdog Windsor, CO

Betty is currently in heat, and therefore wont be available to go to her new home until 11/20. However, she is available for meets with interested adopters!

Betty is a medium-sized sweetie (approx. 40 lbs, but currently underweight) with a heart of gold. She is a little timid (but not skittish) and submissive, so she gets along well with other dogs and likes to give the 2-year-old child at her foster home little kisses. She does not jump up on people and loves kids, making her the ideal family dog with children of all ages. Her favorite pastimes include coming up to you for pets and snuggles, as well as chewing on a bone.

Betty has completely ignored the cat at her foster home and is amazing on leash. While she has absolutely no food aggression (or any sign of aggression at all), she does need to work on her counter surfing and will need a slow-feeder bowl. Her eagerness to please and high food drive will likely make training a breeze.

She has been known to be an escape artist and climb a 6ft fence if left alone and bored, so she will need to be supervised in the yard. She does prefer to stay with her people and get cuddles, so if youre around she doesnt have any motivation to fence jump.

Come meet Betty with Big Bones Canine Rescue in Fort Collins!
