Story
Ira is an (almost) 11-year-old Border Collie mix, though people are routinely surprised when they find out his age! He has the energy of a much younger dog. At 32 pounds, he's big enough to have a real presence but small enough to scoop up as needed. Through no fault of his own, Ira needs a new home as he is not so sure about the toddler in the family.Ira is happiest when he's with YOU. Whether you are looking for a companion for long walks or a buddy to curl up on the couch with (or both!), Ira is your guy. He's a charmer with a stellar track record of winning over dog people and non-dog people alike through his affectionate and snuggly demeanor. Ira is a little smarty-pants who knows his commands (sit, stay, shake, roll over — though he can only roll to his left!).Ira would do best with adults or teenagers only at home. He is uneasy around young children and is leash reactive to other dogs. He has NO major medical issues.
