Finn is a sweet, affectionate boy who forms strong bonds with his people and loves being part of the family. He is very loyal and enjoys being close to his humans, often choosing to sleep on the bed or nearby on the floor. He thrives in an indoor home environment but absolutely loves outdoor time and nature adventures.
He is extremely excited about walks—just saying the word “walk” will send him into full excitement mode. He enjoys tug-of-war, chasing toys, and playtime, though stuffed toys don’t last long with him. Finn is very smart and highly trainable, but he will benefit from structure and consistent guidance. He is energetic and needs daily exercise and mental stimulation to stay balanced.
Finn does well in some social settings. He enjoys dog parks and generally gets along with other dogs. He also lives peacefully with cats, though he does tend to herd them to “keep them in line.” He has never been aggressive toward them. However, he can be very barky and alert around strangers, especially near his home, and he is protective of his space.
Finn is not recommended for homes with small children, as he may bark at or attempt to herd them. He may do better with older, respectful children with proper introductions. He can be reactive to people and dogs approaching his property, likely due to herding instincts.
Overall, Finn is a smart, energetic, and loving dog who will do best with an experienced owner familiar with herding breeds and able to provide exercise, structure, and clear boundaries.
He is being rehomed due to major life changes, including financial constraints, increased work demands, and relocation, which prevent his current owner from providing the level of care and time he deserves.
