My story

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

Travis is a 1 to 2 year old red tri Australian Shepherd. He weighs about 55 lbs. This boy is a typical Aussie with a bobbed tail that wiggles all of the time. Travis is a show stopper with his deep red long coat and amber eyes. He is a higher energy guy with a great personality. Travis never goes out in public without having someone stopping to tell him how beautiful he is. He loves everyone!

Travis' perfect family would be fairly active because he loves to be outdoors. This boy loves to explore and play. Even though Travis is an active aussie, he does like to snuggle. He likes to sit by someone and be loved too. Due to his energy level, Travis would do best in a home with kids 12 years and older. This guy has not been cat tested. He does not show a high drive to chase any small animals. A fenced in yard would be ideal since Travis isn't a Velcro dog. This boy likes to be ahead of his family but keep them in his sight.

We do not know much about Travis' previous life. He was a stray that was turned into a local shelter. Travis is just learning the fun of toys. This dude loves kong toys and puzzle toys. He likes car rides and will sit up and look out the window. Travis is a very smart boy who is learning his basic manners and doing very well. This boy is great on a leash. He is crate trained but he spends his days loose in the house or in the yard under supervision. Travis is currently being fostered with 5 other dogs and is okay with them but this guy focuses on people. He doesn't like to share food or toys with other dogs and he will bark at them to express his displeasure.

This guy is UTD on vaccinations, neutered, microchipped, and on monthly heartworm and flea preventatives. He is being fostered in Owensboro, KY which is just about 2 hours away from Louisville, KY. If you would want to make Travis a family member, please fill out an ADOPTION APPLICATION
