My story

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

Blackie will tug at your heart strings! His face, his demeanor and bubbly personality is all it takes! Chained his entire life and then freed to explore, be loved and live in a home. This beautiful older boy is easy going and just wants attention and to have a forever home! Black is approx., 8 yrs old, 35 pounds, lab/Aussie mix; great with other dogs and enjoys playing with them whenever he gets a chance, it is like a puppy bulb went off on him and he realizes that all is well, and it is just fine to pounce, play fight, run, bark and have a good time with other dogs. He likes being with others but is just fine on his own as well. He is eager to please and wants to be inside with you. He has grown accustomed to sleeping in the bed with a person and with another dog. He is more energetic compared to his brother Brownie also needing a home but compared to normal dogs his energy level is about average. Loves to walk on a leash and will talk to you when you ask if he wants to go. Will definitely let you know when someone is at your door or has pulled up into your drive. Not a digger, not destructive, no bad habits. Black will require a home where he is strictly an inside dog that get walked daily or a home with a privacy fence. He can be adopted alone or if at all possible with his brother Brownie. To adopt Blackie please go to our website and complete the pre-adoption application http://www.southernskiesrescue.org Blackie is fully vetted and microchipped.
