My story

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

Fred is a 1-year-old Australian Shepherd with a wonderfully polite, curious, and loving personality. He’s playful and bright, always excited to explore and eager to be part of whatever his people are doing. Fred has a high, happy energy level and loves staying active. His favorite things are running, playing fetch, tug of war, and romping with other dogs. He brings enthusiasm to everything he does and is always ready for the next adventure. Fred would thrive in a home with people who can invest consistent time and energy into him. He’s very trainable and eager to please, so an owner who enjoys working with their dog will see him shine. His ideal match is an active household—preferably with a backyard to run in and, even better, another friendly dog to play with. Fred is fully house-trained and knows his basic commands. He’s smart, responsive, and picks up new routines quickly. The only behavior challenge to be aware of is his excitement around other dogs—he may whine or jump.
