HAPPY HENRY HENRY is a beautiful and fun-loving Aussie-Border Collie mix who is loving his indoor life in foster with new canine and human friends. Henry was rescued from a rural shelter where he was a Staff Favorite dog; when they reached out to us we picked him up the next day! Henry has been with his foster Mom for almost a month. He’s been neutered, he’s housebroken, he’s good with the other dogs and people. We have to assume Henry was an outdoor-living dog before we rescued him but he has adjusted extremely well in foster care. We believe he’s ready to begin forever with the right person or couple. Henry is gentle; he’s mild mannered indoors but also fun and active when there’s someone who wants to play. He will need leash-training that’s one area that is challenging in foster homes but we are sure he will learn quickly! Henry is smart, he’s adapted to car rides, he’s been to the vet and to a dog-wash as well as a couple of errands. He’s looking to bond with his humans so we really want to find the right home soon. Like all rescue Aussies Henry will need time to decompress in his new home. We are looking for a moderately active person or couple who have herding breed experience and where he won’t be left alone all day. If you’re looking for a sweet, funny new fur friend this handsome red-headed blue-eyed boy could be for you!
