"Shelley" ACD Mix Available in Lansing, MI

Shelley is a year old, Beagle and Cattle Dog Mix. She is being fostered in Lansing, MI. Shelley has been fostered since she was a small puppy, and that means she has been homeless for over a year now. She has a Beagle looking head and ACD looking body. She has the ACD disposition by what her foster family tells me. She is a velcro girl. Her foster family has raised her since she was a pup, so she does not have the issues that some rescues might have.
DOB: November 2005 Weight: 38 lbs. Shelley is a beautiful, sweet, loyal dog. She was abandoned as a tiny puppy and has spent her young life in APB's foster care system. She has grown into a marvelous dog. Shelley is very smart and learns commands easily. She gets along with other dogs but may be too much for cats, unless they are accustomed to active dogs. Shelley's foster home is one without children, but she should be fine around kids over 10 years in age. Shelley is crate trained, too.
Since she is half beagle, and beagles are "all nose", we would strongly prefer she go to a home with a fenced yard. Shelley is healthy but does need weekly medication and daily supplements to control nighttime urinary incontinence. She is accident free with the medication, but it helps to keep her on a regular potty schedule, too. We can't believe Shelley is still in foster care - she is a really wonderful dog and should have been snatched up by a good family by now!
