Rodeo Princess, the Dog of the Day
Name: Rodeo Princess
Age: One year old
Gender: Female Breed: Border Collie
Home: Cottonwood, Arizona, USA
 
   This is my best girlfriend, Rodeo Princess. She just turned a year old in September. She is a smooth-coated Border Collie. I rescued her from the Humane Society when she was four months old after someone had brought her back because "their kids didn't like her."

    Rodeo's favorite things to do are swim, chase the ball, go for long walks, be cuddled upside down, sleep, eat and enjoy life. She loves kids and all animals. She was plain wild when I got her, but this breed is sooo smart, I knew it just was a matter of spending lots of time with her and training her and sure enough, within 24 hours of some attention, I saw results. She is a great dog.

    Every September, we go to "Dogapalooza," a charity event benefitting the Humane Society. We are going to be selling homemade all-natural dog treats (all proceeds to benefit the Humane Society) Rodeo is going as an ambassador to show potential adoptive parents what they can get from a rescue dog. Last year, during this event, over 3000 dogs and cats found good homes as a result. We're hoping for at least that this year. Everyone should have a dog like my Rodeo princess!
