Buddy is great with other dogs and dog-savvy cats (though if the cat runs, the chase is on!). He’s a bit shy at first, but once he feels safe, his playful, affectionate side shines through. New places and noises can still be a little intimidating for him, so patience and gentle encouragement are key.
He’s crate trained—and really needs his crate, since he’s a curious boy who likes to “help” by checking out anything within reach. (Blankets, toys, tissues... you name it!) Buddy has plenty of that classic Sheltie energy, loves to play fetch, and will thrive in a home that keeps both his body and his mind busy.
Buddy walks nicely on a leash, but vehicles are a challenge—his herding instincts kick into high gear when cars go by. He’ll need continued training to work through this, and we’re looking for an experienced owner or someone committed to working with a trainer to help him with his vehicle reactivity.
He’s already attended Puppy Kindergarten and Canine Good Citizen classes and was just one session away from earning his CGC certificate!
