Filo came to us from Finland at the age of four, together with her sister Teeri. What stands out immediately about Filo – aside from her striking Border Collie look – is her deep connection to people. The moment you sit down, Filo is there. And she rarely settles for just lying nearby: her favorite place is right on top of you – whether that’s your lap, your legs, or simply nestled straight into your heart. With her gentle and affectionate nature, Filo is not just a loyal companion but a true cuddle enthusiast who clearly cherishes being close to “her” humans.

The name Filo is derived from Filomena, which means “friend of courage.” And Filo wears this name with pride: with her open, trusting nature, she approaches new people and situations with curiosity and confidence. Her quiet strength reveals itself through her calm, loving presence – gentle yet brave, sensitive yet self-assured.
