My story

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

Kennel staff are taking applications on me and picking the most appropriate home.

**I am currently out in foster with one of the Berkshire Humane Society Family Dog School training staff - if you are interested in meeting me, please call the kennel staff at (413) 447-7878 ext.126**

- Blue Heeler/German Shepherd/Husky Mix
- Fearful - no kids, teens+
- Can climb out of ex-pens and attempted to leave the evaluation area several times
- Moderately social with humans and relatively confident in exploring but will quickly go from exploring to fear if he startles himself - Not a good candidate for children, needs a quieter home with a family willing to put some time into gaining his trust
- He will work for treats and came out of his shell for the evaluation
- He is more social with the support of his brothers and might be best going home with an adult dog already in the home
- Remarkably tolerant of handling
- Almost cat-like in his interactions
- Moderate energy

Dogs: Yes, needs to go home with another dog
Cats: A dog savvy cat would be okay
Kids: Teens+
