New Puppy

[BTGuard]

Well, in my travels around western iowa I came across a younger dog who had apparently gotten her chain loose, drug it. A couple miles, then got tangled up in an old corn crib. We untangled her and got her to finally trust us, and had the owner of the corn crib put it on Facebook to see if anyone recognized her. She's currently on my front porch happy as can be. We think she's a mini Australian Shepherd.

Good for y'all helping her out. Good looking pup!

Anybody know the easiest way to tell age? We think she's around 1 but don't really know for sure

Count the rings (kidding), vets can often get semi close by examining their teeth.

Nice looking pup, nonetheless.

Thanks I'll see if I can find some rings is no one claims her in the next week or two I'll be taking her to the vet

That is a good looking dog. Way to go man.

I'd also guess about a year old. Definitely an Aussie. They're great dogs. My wife's is a total sweetheart.

Thanks for doing the right thing. She looks to be in great shape.

Yep, she appears to have been fed well, although she was slightly skittish if you moved quickly around her. Very little matted hair.

Kudos for you.

Great dogs. My cousin had them on his farm. Great with cattle and would stay in the bed of his truck until told otherwise.

Where in eastern Iowa? I grew up in western Illinois and spent alot of my childhood across the river in Iowa. Leclaire/Princeton area.
