Huckleberry was dumped near our property (July 2024) and since we were unable to make contact with his owners and he got along well with our dogs, we kept him. Our 3 cats were raised with dogs, so they didn’t seem to mind him being so high energy. He needs a great deal of attention and struggles at times with having accidents in the house, though he is house trained and does understand that he needs to go outside. Due to his breed, he has a tendency to nip. This summer we had a baby and since then I have started babysitting other kids. We have discovered that he nips at small children and doesn’t seem to understand why he can’t do that given that he is a herding dog. He is very affectionate, friendly, and sweet, but we cannot risk him harming our child or someone else’s. We are heartbroken that he can’t stay and would love to find him the perfect home with an owner who is prepared to entertain him. Preferably if he can have other furry playmates.
