My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

~ ADOPTION PENDING ~

You may meet and apply to adopt Theo at our ADOPTION EVENT on SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 13th from 12 Noon – 3:00 at PETCO in NEWPORT BEACH. (Our event is held INSIDE of the PETCO store.) adoptpetmatch@gmail.com

THEO NEEDS A FOSTER FOR A SHORT TIME UNTIL ADOPTED. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN FOSTERING THEO, PLEASE EMAIL adoptpetmatch@gmail.com

*~* IMPORTANT: In addition to socialization and exercise outside the home, Theo requires a home with an enclosed yard that will provide plenty of space for exercise. Please understand this is a requirement and there will be NO EXCEPTIONS. Thank you. *~*

Theo is a male Border Collie/German Shepherd mix approximately 10 months old. He has the most gorgeous, glossy coat of black and tan waves that you have ever seen. His coat is longer and silky soft. Theo currently weighs 56 pounds and may gain a bit more to reach an adult size of 65-70 pounds. Theo is young, very intelligent, and loves an active lifestyle. True to his breed, he can go for miles and loves to play hard with other big dogs his size or larger. He will thrive in a home where his quick, bright mind is challenged with equal amounts of gentle obedience and playtime. Theo loves people and is super affectionate. He is submissive with his humans and has a nice amount of respect for voice commands and direction. Theo tries hard to understand and is highly trainable. He would no doubt excel in dog agility or any canine sports. The sky is the limit with this young boy. Theo is innocent and a blank slate and can be shaped into just the kind of dog you want him to be. He would make a nice running companion or hiking buddy as well. He adores being together with his family and has a high degree of loyalty and devotion to people. He will thrive being included as a valued pet and companion. Theo learns and recognizes familiar faces very quickly. He rides quietly in the car and has good manners indoors. Theo was rescued from a very high-volume/high-kill shelter where he was brought in stray. He is super healthy and has his whole life ahead of him. Theo is ready for his new forever loving home today!

Theo’s adoption donation is $475 (*TAX DEDUCTABLE). He has been NEUTERED, MICROCHIPPED, VACCINATED, DEWORMED, DEFLEAED and PROFESSIONALLY GROOMED. Also included is his collar with ID, harness, leash, folder with all of his records, a great PETCO coupon book, and a fun goodie bag with toys, etc.

You may meet and apply to adopt Theo at our ADOPTION EVENT on SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 13th from 12 Noon – 3:00 at PETCO in NEWPORT BEACH located at 1280 Bison Ave., Newport Beach, CA 92660. adoptpetmatch@gmail.com

WE REQUIRE BRINGING ALL CURRENT DOGS AND MEMBERS OF YOUR HOUSEHOLD IN EFFORT TO DETERMINE COMPATIBILITY. THANK YOU FOR WANTING TO SAVE A LIFE AND ADOPT A RESCUE.
