Effie is a black 9 year old little lady who is confident, affectionate, and energetic. If you think 9 sounds old - think again! Effie loves to play ball and some may even call her a "ball hog". She walks well on-leash, rides well in cars, and knows every trick in the book (sit, shake, down, stay, and more). True to her cocker ways, Effie is very food motivated and is quick to grab any food that she thinks looks yummy, even if it doesn't belong to her. Effie found herself needing a new home when her family could no longer care for her. However, it is obvious that she was well-loved. She has over 20 championship ribbons and awards from her days as a show dog. She can live with kids, cats, and other dogs. However, she is dominant and can be protective of her "chosen person" so she wouldn't mind being an only-pet. She is crate trained, housetrained, and knows how to use a doggy door. Effie would do best in a home that can be active with her and doesn't mind a constant companion. In her free time, Effie likes to follow you around, lay on your feet as you do the dishes, and paw at you for more petting as you sit together on the couch. If you want a super friendly, energetic, affectionate girl, Effie is the one for you!
