Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hopper, our border collie, joined our family back in 2017. Me, my wife, and our 3 daughters have had him since he was a puppy. Hopper is a part of our family, but over the recent years it seems we are unable to provide him the time & attention he truly, truly needs. His level of energy and need for work is not being met and therefore finding him a home where he can truly work, and fulfill his hearts desire is what is best at this point. Hopper needs a new best friend or family (or pack of best friends).
The past 3 years we have moved 6 times. We are a busy family. We also have quite a bit of families that come over weekly. This level of activity only seems to make Hopper more anxious and we have seen some behavioral issues. However, we believe it is because of the level of activity at the house. And our time to truly train him and provide the guidance he needs.
Hopper is a remarkable dog and I/we love him we are just not able to give him what he truly needs right now.
