Story
That’s right, I check ALL the boxes! I’m an adorable Aussie mix (maybe border collie) who has good house manners and gets along with most other dogs and people. I am affectionate, entertaining, and eager to please. And I need a family who can meet my needs and check all the boxes for ME! My foster mom gives me LOTS of walks and exercise but a securely fenced in yard would make life a lot better for me ‘cause I really like to run! I also need lots of walks or hikes, so an active adopter would be a great fit for me. Agility anyone? But don’t get the wrong idea – I also LOVE to chill out in the house giving kisses and snuggles and getting tummy rubs. My foster mom loves that I’m quiet and I wake her up with kisses. Who needs an alarm clock? And to top off all my other wonderful qualities, I’m quite handsome! Of course, no one is perfect (though I come pretty darn close) . I am not a fan of cyclists or people on scooters, or the bike trail and they are everywhere! When I’m not afraid of them, I’m trying to chase them. My foster mom is working on these issues and is learning to manage them with the help of a trainer but my new family will need to continue working on these with me or live in a less urban area for my safety and wellbeing. I am smart and, like I said, eager to please! One box that is especially important is I need an adopter who has experience with my breed or a similar breed. As you know, we are quite the athletes and have unique needs and we really don’t want an adopter who will be surprised by and unprepared for all that entails. No doubt, general admiration for my breed and my dazzling looks will attract a lot of adoption applications. Since the goal here is to set both me and my new family up to succeed, please make sure you “check the boxes” and are a good fit for me. Thank you for your interest. I hope to meet you soon! Taki is neutered, up to date with vaccines, microchipped, and is currently on flea and tick and heartworm prevention.May 3, 2024, 10:09 pm
