Hello there. I’m being called Aiden these days. I’m an older guy, somewhere around 8-10. I’ve had a lot of names, but this one suits me just fine. I’ll respond to it if you holler it loudly enough for my old ears. I’m pretty good at watching for signals, too. Attentive, they say.
I like people in general, but I'm known to have favorites, and I’ll follow them anywhere, even with these sore hips. I can do stairs if I have to since they started me on medication, but I’d really love to just be able to walk outside and enjoy a fenced in yard at my leisure.
I’m not big on playing with other dogs, but I don’t mind their company after some getting used to them. Once they know to stay out of my face, I’m content enough to lay beside them. This is why I like cats. They seem to feel the same way as I do. Don’t bother me, I won’t bother you. I correct younger dogs kind of loudly. But, I figure – if I do it seriously enough the first time, I won’t have to say it again. I have two fur foster siblings where I am now, and we’ve come to understand each other.
I live with two little humans, ages 6 and 3, so my foster parents have learned that I like kids a lot, but with my arthritis I can be a little grumpy and growly, so I need my hairless siblings to know to be careful. Older kids seem to get it. I can get a little over protective of the smaller ones. I’m a herding breed, after all.
I’m housebroken, but while I was a stray, I developed a habit of marking that I’m still trying to break, and sometimes I have accidents. I’m good about wearing a belly band, though it’s a little embarrassing to admit I need one.
It’s been hard getting older. Things aren’t like they used to be. But, I’d really like to find love again and spend the rest of my life somewhere warm and safe. If you have room for an old guy like me to rest his head, I won’t be much of a bother.
I love being outside. I like taking walks. Car rides are the best! And I really like taking naps. Now and then, I’ll even roll a ball around by myself. I had to get used to being alone.
But, I don’t really want to be alone anymore. Do you?
