Why I need a new home

Busy schedule

My story

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

Porter is a 3 1/2 year old purebred Mini Australian Shepherd. He is extremely energetic and could run and play all day. He is one of the most loving and affectionate dogs and is happy to be just by your side. He is house trained and potty trained and knows basic commands ("come, sit, stay, shake, etc"). Although Porter is a wonderful loving pup, he does need training with socialization and with other dogs. Because Porter has not been properly socialized, he will bark and lung at other dogs when they are too close. Porter may "act" aggressive because he is scared of the unknown. He is completely trainable but you have to take time and be patient to see progress in him.

We are looking for a home that:
-Knows the Australian Shepherd breed (Shepherd dog, VERY active)
-Has a large backyard (Required for running around)
-Is willing to work with Porter's socialization skills
-Would make a great family dog!
-Will show endless love and affection towards him


(If you have contacted me about Porter on his old profile please don't hesitate to contact me again! (The other Pet profile was deleted).
