Felix is a 3-year-old, 40 pound Border Collie mix who loves to stay active and engaged with his people. His favorite game is fetch, and he’s great at it — he brings the toy back and drops it for you, ready to keep playing. If you’re looking for a dog who truly enjoys interactive play, Felix will happily be your partner.
He’s very smart and highly food motivated, which makes training fun and rewarding. He enjoys learning new skills and would do well in a home that can provide regular mental and physical exercise. He would also be a great match for someone interested in dog sports like frisbee, agility, and trick training. Felix is mostly neutral around other dogs and tends to ignore them in favor of focusing on his person and his toys.
Felix can be a little reserved when meeting new people, but he warms up quickly when play is involved. He would be best in a home with children 12+ who can respect his space and enjoy his active play style. Felix currently lives with cats in his foster home, but he does like to chase if given the opportunity. As such, he would not do well in a home with skittish cats, but with continued training and management could do well with confident, dog-savvy cats who stand their ground.
Felix is crate trained and house trained and is looking for an adopter who wants an engaged, playful companion and enjoys spending time training, playing, and building a strong bond with their dog.
Felix's adoption fee is $350 and includes neuter, vaccines and microchip. If you are interested in meeting and possibly adopting Felix, please complete an adoption application located here:
