**MEET ME AT OUR 7/28 ADOPTION EVENT IN WAKEFIELD**Adoptable in: MA, RI, NH, CT, and VTGood with dogs: YesGood with cats: YesGood with kids: Yes, dog-savvy childrenCrate trained: Yes House Trained: Working on it Hi, I’m Ferdinand McBroom. If you want to tell me how adorable I am, I'm all ears.Life started out a bit rough for me and my brother, Socks, left abandoned on the streets to fend for ourselves when we were just tiny pups. But hey, that's all in the past now – I might come off as super shy at first, but trust me, there's a whole lot of heart and brains in this Border Collie/ lab mix package. I just need a bit of time to feel safe and secure.I think I'd do best in a family that's patient and understanding, especially with my initial bashfulness. Kids are great, as long as they're old enough to know how to approach a shy guy like me. Oh, and it would be totally awesome if my brother could come too. I get along with everyone, and it's nice to have a buddy to hang out with, but certainly not necessary. I’m totally capable of entertaining myself. All the pups in my foster home can vouch for my charming personality and unwavering loyalty. Cats are cool, too. I love a good challenge and am grateful I got the smarts because I will need all the training – potty, leash, basic manners– just like any typical puppy. I am progressing quickly with all the above but will need a consistent routine and encouragement and treats. PLEASE don’t forget the treats!! I am familiar with the crate and am happy to spend time there for day naps and through the night. I have overheard my fosters say I am a possible “flight risk” because I am so timid and new surroundings are a bit scary at first, but I promise once I warm up, I will never leave your side.So, if you're up for a pup who's sweet, smart, and all heart, look no further.Please Note: All dogs currently available for adoption are posted on our website.
