My story

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


Gancito is a 4-yr-old neutered male Mini Aussie (~40 lb, tri-color). With us since puppy (breeder). Smart, sweet, and very cuddly—after he’s had real exercise + mental work. High-energy herding breed: without structure/stimulation he can bark, get destructive, or reactive. Potty + crate trained; knows sit/down/shake; completed 4-week training and does best with experienced handling and clear rules. Not off-leash reliable (will chase). Good with adults; can live with kids/cat with close supervision (may herd/chase). With dogs he wants to play immediately and can overwhelm some. Past fear bite when a stranger reached into his crate; not aggressive and has never bitten a dog. Healthy, vaccines current. Seeking an active, experienced home that can provide daily exercise, training, and enrichment. Loves hikes and puzzle toys, and is a loyal “velcro” cuddler. First few nights may include some howling while he adjusts. Was trained with prong+ecollar.
