RVSPCA Furry Friday: Sugar

Sugar was definitely given a name that fits her personality. This sweet girl is a hound/border collie mix who loves to please. She is very treat-motivated, and is very gentle when she takes her treats from your hand. She already knows sit and shake, and would love to learn lots more.

Sugar is a very active 48 pound dog that would make an excellent exercise companion. She has working dog DNA, so her perfect human will give her opportunities to learn new skills and see new things.

Sugar has been spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. Meet her today at the Roanoke Valley SPCA from Noon to 6pm.
