About Gabby Girl
Status: Adopted! Species: Dog	Declawed: No Housetrained: Yes

Hey Everyone! Gabby here! I've decided to take a break for a minute from playing ball and tell you all a little bit about myself. I am a black and white, smooth coat, purebred Border Collie. I will be 3 yrs old next month. I overheard my foster mom say something about a party with lots of Frisbees and tennis balls. I can't wait! I came to ARF because my previous family wanted a puppy that was intelligent and good with kids, but did not realize that I would need lots of exercise and attention as well as love. I lived with two little kids that needed to be cared for and my family realized they just didn't have the time for me. They gave me a good start to life by teaching me how to sit, lay down, sit-stay, down-stay and drop it. I am also an angel in my crate, housebroken, and well behaved in the house, thanks to them. I wish they would have taught me more, but I can't wait for my next family to do that. I love to work and be challenged. I am very good at flying through the air to catch Frisbees, if I do say so myself. My foster brother thinks I am goofy, but has a blast chasing after me. I heard my mom say something about me being a great agility, flyball or Frisbee dog. I am not sure what agility is, but it sounds awesome and I hope someday to try it. I also need a home with a fenced in yard because, I think that cars are neat and I sometimes to try to herd them. Well that was a long enough break. If you think that you can give me lots of exercise, attention and love, please fill out an online application. I can't wait to find my perfect forever home.

Thank you for considering a rescue pet from A.R.F.-Animal Rescue Foundation! We are based in Wheaton, IL and conduct adoption events in the DuPage County area. If you are interested in adopting one of our pets, please submit an adoption application at https://www.arf-il.org/adopt/application/

Adoption appointments are scheduled based on the order of applications received, so submit your application early! Submitting an application does not commit you to any animal but does get you a head start with the adoption approval process. Due to a high volume of applications, we are often unable to respond to questions or schedule meetings until your application has been approved. More information about our adoption process can be found on our website here: https://www.arf-il.org/adopt/

As an all-volunteer, foster home-based organization, A.R.F. Animal Rescue Foundation does not have a facility where applicants can visit our animals. Please visit https://www.arf-il.org/events/ for a list of our upcoming adoption events.

Thank you for choosing to adopt, not shop!
