Story
Meet Pete!
A lively one-year-old Border Collie Mix hailing from the bustling streets of San Francisco, CA. Pete embodies the essence of a true dog's dog, with an eager enthusiasm for socializing with his furry friends. His playful nature knows no bounds as he happily greets every dog he meets on his daily walks and enjoys engaging in spirited games of wrestling and chasing at the local park. Whether romping with big or small dogs, Pete's friendly attitude shines through, making him a beloved member of any doggy social circle!
With his sharp mind, Pete is a quick learner who thrives on mental challenges and training sessions. Reflecting his heritage as a herding breed, he has a natural tendency toward activity, needing plenty of exercise and stimulation to burn off his abundant energy. Living in the city, Pete often expresses a desire for more space and physical activity to satisfy his instincts.
Though a bit wary of strangers at first, Pete is fiercely loyal and affectionate with his chosen humans. He forms strong bonds with his trusted companions, sticking close to them and showing them plenty of love and devotion!
Ideal living situations for Pete include homes with other dogs for him to play with or ample outdoor space where he can roam and potentially engage in tasks. Potential adopters should be ready to put in the time and effort for Pete's training and enrichment, ensuring his continued growth and happiness.
Pete's favorite activities include playing fetch and chasing his doggy pals at the park. He knows a variety of commands like sit, stay, and shake, showing his eagerness to learn and please!
While generally well-behaved, Pete may show some territorial behavior, especially toward delivery people, and he can get a bit anxious around loud noises. However, he adapts well to being left alone for short periods and can adjust to different routines.
Fully vaccinated, neutered, and microchipped, Pete is healthy and responsible. His excellent house and crate training makes him an ideal companion for any loving home ready to embrace his lively spirit and affectionate nature!
