RUFF - GOLDEN RETRIEVER / BORDER COLLIE / MIXED (MEDIUM COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Golden Retriever / Border Collie / Mixed (medium coat). STRAY RUFF is available! Ruff (25-027) is a neutered Golden mix that was found as a stray wandering in a new housing development. He was thin and had some skin wounds, but allowed the finder to give him a bath. He didn't like being handled at first, and the finder noticed Ruff was fearful of shoes or raised hands. But while he has been in boarding he has learned to happily play and roughhouse with the kennel staff. Ruff still does not like his back end touched, so he needs a dog-savvy adopter with love and patience. He is potty-trained, crate-trained (with some coaxing), leash-trained, and loves his walks. Ruff is friendly once he warms up and gets along well with other dogs; he is neutral and non-engaging with male dogs, but a bit overly enamored with female dogs. Because he plays rough and is reactive to being touched in certain areas, we will not adopt Ruff to a home with small children.
