Is that a gorgeous smile or what?

UPDATE: Heidi was adopted December 20, 2010!

Meet Heidi! She’s an Austrailian Kelpie Mix, who, like her namesake, the Heidi of literary fame, is a sweetheart of a girl who’s been tossed about from place to place, loves to learn, and seeks a loving forever home.

Heidi had a rough start in life. She, along with many other lucky dogs, was rescued from a puppy mill in North Dakota by our very own nationally recognized Humane Society of Boulder Valley (HSBV).

Check out this touching video of Heidi demonstrating her most friendly and engaging moves.

Despite her troubled beginnings Heidi is resilient, mellow, and eager to expand her friends list! Well, with one exception. Cats.

You see, Heidi was previously adopted and then returned to the HSBV. It seems the resident cat had no manners! He was unfriendly to Heidi. Aggressive actually. He swatted and hissed at her. Not surprisingly Heidi was afraid of the cat and tried to hide from him. So a new home without a cat might be best for Heidi!

Heidi is spayed and four years old. My Sadie girl is four years old, and I can tell you it’s a great age—past adolescence and growing into a fine young adult.

The good people at the Human Society of Boulder Valley recommend a patient home committed to positive reinforcement training to help Heidi build confidence. Their Training and Behavior Center will provide complimentary support to you if adopt Heidi in order to ease her transition into your home.

Did Heidi your capture heart? Please call  HSBV at 303-442-4030 during their regular shelter hours to speak to an animal welfare associate. Heidi would love for you to visit her at the HSBV. Click here for a map and directions.

Maybe yours will be Heidi’s forever home.
