My story

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

Quincy is a 16-month-old Aussie Pointer mix, smart, playful, and full of personality. He came to us after biting his former owner, an older woman who couldn’t meet his training needs. Since then, he’s made huge progress: he learns quickly, loves praise, and is gaining confidence with things that once scared him. Indoors, he’s calm and impressively respectful. He doesn’t counter surf, even when human food is left out without supervision. He waits patiently for meals, sleeps soundly through the night, and now tolerates things like ear drops without fuss. He’s truly blossoming into a well-mannered, better-socialized dog. Quincy enjoys children in calm, supervised settings, but due to his bite history should be placed in a home with teenagers or adults only. His main challenge is guarding small chews or items he thinks he shouldn’t have. Quincy shines when he knows what’s expected. With structure, patience, and an experienced hand, he’ll be a loyal, loving companion for life.
