Meet Poppy

Allow us to introduce Poppy, a beautiful 6-7 month-old Sheltie puppy who has recently become a part of the Maine Sheltie Rescue and is now ready to find her forever home.

Poppy’s personality is as bright and beautiful as the flower she is named after. Since arriving at her foster home, Poppy has blossomed into an affectionate and sociable girl who effortlessly connects with everyone she meets, including men, women, children, and other dogs.

Poppy is adaptable and can thrive in a variety of environments, effortlessly transitioning between energetic play and quiet relaxation. Her rapid progress with crate training and meal time etiquette is a testament to her remarkable understanding and eagerness to learn.

With her friendly demeanor and puppy energy, Poppy has the potential to excel as a walking or hiking partner, or possibly even in agility training. Poppy also adores cuddling and will often follow her foster family around, seeking physical affection. One of her favorite things is to curl up on their laps in the evenings.

To ensure Poppy reaches her full potential, she requires additional training in basic commands, leash manners, barking control, and housebreaking. Fortunately, she has made significant progress in these areas and, given her intelligence, is likely to quickly master these skills.

A fenced yard is a requirement for her safety.
