Benji is a 35-40 pound, 2-1/2 year-old, purebred Australian Shepard male. We acquired him from a CraigsList ad less than a year ago. He is very loving and gets along great with our dogs and cats, but he had little to no training. He is incredibly smart and learns quickly but we have agreed to babysit our new grandchild and do not have the time required to train him appropriately. He knows his name and "come" "sit" "off" and "down". He has never been leash-trained and we have to use a harness. He doesn't like being left alone or being kenneled alone so having another dog is very helpful AND he will have a playmate to exhaust some of his energy. Benji is a great companion. He needs an owner that is familiar with his breed and has the time and ability to train him.
