Meet our new Wet Nose Wednesday with The Collar Club in Wisconsin Rapids – Tortilla! Tortilla is a camel, dark brown, 35 pound, 2.5 year-old boxer mix. She is up-to-date on immunizations and heartworm negative.
Tortilla was found as a stray around Hwy. 18 in Stevens Point. No one has come for her. Picture a face of a greyhound attached to a boxer body. She is long, leggy, smooth, sleek, and looks great in a sweater. She walks amazingly on a leash and is a very quick learner. She was getting the hang of new commands within the first couple of shelter days and displays a lot intelligence.
Tortilla loves toys but will eat ones that have stuffing, so tough toys are a must for her! When she gets too excited, petting her seems to calm her down. She enjoys puzzle toys and sleeps all night. She is a blanket hog though, so make sure to have extra nearby for yourself! She loves being outside! She is an active dog in good health and enjoys her daily walks. Tortilla would be a great dog to take out on the trail to do some hiking or playing fetch in the backyard. She told us herself that she would love to have a backyard. When she is all done with that, she would like to fall asleep on the couch with a bunch of blankets. She is a little nervous, so we don’t recommend small children for her. She would do better with older children that are respectful of boundaries. Tortilla is a “girl’s girl”; who really doesn’t seem to enjoy men. She may do fine with a slow introduction to someone patient and willing to work with her on her man-phobia. She does not seem to mind cats but is NOT a fan of dogs.
She would enjoy a home with older children and adults who will keep her busy. Her adoption fee is $200, you can fill out an adoptions application here!
