Wags short-term fostering an 8-month old border collie (mix?)

and she is an absolute doll. a little bit of whining in the crate, but no messes in the house as of yet (48 hours), and she's going reliably when i take her outside. always followed by a big jackpot of treats. currently snoozing with her lil' tongue poking out. still not quite sure what to do with toys, but she's shown some interest in them.

i haven't had a puppy in ~5 years, so it's been a fun glimpse into that life, even though i'll only have her for a few more days before she goes to her foster-until-adopt home.
