Gypsy is a recent arrival to the Northern Chautauqua Canine Rescue, surrendered through no fault of her own when her owner could no longer care for her. She is a 3.5-year-old female Australian shepherd/border collie mix. True to her breed, she enjoys fetch and herding games and strongly believes in balancing work and play, Gypsy has a stunning smile and an expressive face. She sports a soft, glossy coat, and she is learning to enjoy being brushed. Her grooming needs include keeping those silky tresses mat-free, but are otherwise fairly low maintenance. She is fully house trained already and knows some basic commands, too. Read more about Gypsy and all the available dogs and apply to adopt online at www.caninerescue.org. The shelter is open from 1 to 3 p.m. Monday through Saturday at 7540 N. Gale St., Westfield, no appointment needed. For more information email adoptions@caninerescue.org.
