Description
Posted Breed: Border Collie. Age: 8 months Sex: Neutered male Estimated Breed: Border collie X Weight: 30 lbs Good with dogs?: Yes Good with cats?: Yes Good with children?: No, older children only Special/Medical Needs: Fear Energy Level: High Dash is a young neutered male, smaller border collie X (maybe purebred) who's 19" and approx 30 lbs. He loves his food, treats and toys and has a healthy appetite which is good considering he was quite thin when he was first rescued. Dash appears shy at first and may take a while to open up to new people. He loves the company of others dogs (hasn't met a dog he didn't like and thinks all dogs should be his friend) and is very good with cats. Having a canine buddy around increases his confidence and helps with his separation anxiety. An ideal home would be a quieter adult only home (or older teenagers) with a canine buddy, someone who has patience and is dog savvy or willing to attend classes. It's likely that Dash was abused at some point in his short life since he is nervous with men, especially men making sudden movements. Dash does not bark when strangers come to the door, however, will be vocal if left alone without another dog or human. He sleeps overnight in his crate in his foster's bedroom which makes him feel secure. This boy is mostly house trained but does have the occasional accident. He has learned a few basic command such as come, sit, down, kennel. He walks nicely on a leash once he's comfortable with you. His foster mom will continue working with him until he is adopted. If not given an outlet to burn off energy and appropriate toys and chews, he will happily make up his own rules which also includes chewing on your prized possessions. Once comfortable with you, he will snuggle under the covers or hang out chilling on the couch. Working with Dash has been a real joy, watching him flourish and come around from the very timid dog he was when he arrived in Texas. His fosters would love to keep him but having three dogs and three cats means Dash should find a "furever home".
