Why I need a new home

Busy schedule

My story

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

Blue comes with papers as he is registered with the American Stock Dog Registry. He is a MINI Australian Shepherd and 5 years old.
I found Blue in a tiny cage, dumped at a horse auction, he was skin and bones and terrified. His prior owner said he did his job and needed to move on.
Blue was a stud dog for a breeder and lived outside his entire life. He does not know how to handle human affection well. He will shake when held. But, also cuddles into your embrace. He has done well with my kids, dogs, cats, horses and goats.
He has become an inside dog and is potty trained.
We are a very busy family and do not have the time to help bust him out of his fearful shell. Blue needs someone who can teach him that not all humans are bad and let him be loved!
He needs to find a new loving home ASAP.
