This handsome was left to care for himself in ARK, a good person picked him up when he was starving, took him in and care for him. Now he is ready to come to Mass.  Midnight is right at a year old and he absolutely LOVES kids. He’s a gentle, good boy, gets along with dogs but he’s a “mature” fella (he thinks) so over aggressive playful dogs are not his thing. Someone out there is looking for this guy… fully vetted, 45 lbs He will be here mid Feb, if you are interested please apply www.fromalontohomerescue.org  ##2643466##

Story
Just like his name, Shamwow is small but mighty! This 4-month-old neutered male Mini Aussie is full of spunk, sass, and puppy enthusiasm. He’s curious, energetic, and always ready to investigate the world around him, even though sometimes it can be scary for him!Shamwow is still learning the rules of being a good boy. He’s a typical teething puppy who is working on manners, impulse control, and appropriate chew choices. Because he’s still young, he’ll thrive with structure, consistency, and positive reinforcement training.When it comes to other dogs, Shamwow has a bit of a “Napoleon complex” — he doesn’t always realize he’s the little guy in the room. He can be loud and rude, which is coming from a sense of uneasiness and fear (we don`t think he met many dogs before coming to the shelter). With that said, he can live with other patient, friendly dogs who can teach him how to be brave and he`ll thrive in a home that’s committed to slow, proper introductions and ongoing guidance.This smart little herder will do best with an adopter who understands puppies take time, training, and patience ... and that herding dogs need double the time, double the training and quadruple the patience plus a job to be happy pups! They`re just too smart for their own good!If you’re looking for a lively companion with personality for days and are ready to put in the work that comes with puppyhood, Shamwow might just be your perfect match! If you`re into dog sports or need a working dog-this is your guy. If you`re just looking for a cute easy pup- we`ll introduce you to some other options. =)
