Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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

Archie is a beautiful Mini Australian Shepherd. Archie has been a part of our family for over 4 years since he was a puppy. He is incredibly loyal, affectionate, and smart. He loves being pet and played with by everyone and has plenty of energy! He was born in Colorado and used to take hikes with us all the time as he loves being outside. Archie suffers from some extreme anxiety. He has major separation anxiety and does not adjust well to change. He also can be territorial with food and toys (with dogs and humans). We just had our first baby a year ago and that adjustment has been difficult for Archie. He doesn't have the kind of patience needed to be around children who will accidentally sit on him and pull his ears/tail and who want his toys. We love Archie almost as if he were our baby and the decision to re-home has been very difficult. We want him to be in the perfect situation as we know he will make a great dog for the right home given his intelligence and loyalty.
