My story

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

Adopted from animal control on June 5, 2019; came in as a stray. 68% German Shepherd, 21% Australian Shepherd, and 11% Border Collie with no genetic defects or health issues detected. Neutered, up to date on shots, and microchipped. Just under 70lbs and approx. 2 years old. Housebroken and non-destructive if given full accesswhen left alone. If he's left alone in a crate or closed room he tends to panic. He is good with my cat and friendly to other dogs on walks. He is very scared of new people and will bark/growl or try to run away. Once he trusts you he is affectionate and a big cuddler. He behaves for baths, brushings, and nail clippings. He needs a fenced yard as he's easily distracted and has chase instincts with squirrels. He needs someone that is physically active, has a strong sense of command, and is home most of the day. He listens well when not distracted; continuing to work with him on listening while distracted. Will send more detailed information via email if you apply.
