Story
Purchased Finn from an independent person, dog had a litter unplanned. He was 6 months when we adopted him. He is full of energy, loves to play and give kisses. He has been raised with two others dogs and a cat. He is gentle with other animals and gets along well with them. He is totally potty trained, no issues at all with that. He has been around kids and can be good with them. His biggest issue is he is very stranger shy and it takes him a long time to get used to people. Once you are part of the pack, then you are good, but until then he is very defensive and barks. You can break through his defenses quickly by simply offering him a treat. He also really gravitates toward his person and can be come pretty protective of that person. He has been known to nip at people to protect his person. With some time and training I am sure this could be quickly corrected. He is smart and very loving, he will give you all the kisses and hugs you want! A big lap dog for sure.

Story
We fostered and then adopted Benny when he was 6 weeks old. We aren’t sure what breed he is, but he looks like an Australian Shepherd mix. He is a cuddle bug and has tons of energy. He would be a great fit for someone really active who can take him on walks/runs frequently. He is house trained and does not have any accidents inside. He has some resource guarding tendencies with food/water and his sleep space. He is reactive and has anxiety. When he feels scared or threatened he has nipped/bit in the past(mostly surrounding his food area or if he is startled out of a sleep. He is almost 7 years old, but still has the energy that he had as a puppy. Due to his reactive nature, he would not be a good fit around young children. He has been good around other animals in the past, but it has been several years since he has been around other animals, so I’m not sure how he would be now. Feel free to reach out with any questions.
