BENNIE - AUSTRALIAN SHEPHERD / BORDER COLLIE / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Australian Shepherd / Border Collie / Mixed. Meet Bennie! 4 months old | 20 lbs | Border Collie / Aussie Mix Bennie is a bright, spirited pup looking for a patient and loving home to help him grow into the best dog he can be. At just 4 months old, he’s already crate-trained, making progress with house training, and quick to pick up household routines. He’s clever, eager to please, and full of potential—though he sometimes adds a touch of stubbornness to keep things interesting. True to his herding breed mix, Bennie is intelligent and needs a family who understands the unique needs of Border Collies and Aussies. He thrives on work, structure, and challenges that keep his mind busy. Ongoing training and enrichment will be key to helping him shine. This shy boy can be a little particular about who he bonds with, but once Bennie decides you’re his person, his love and loyalty run deep. He’s playful, especially with other dogs, though his style can be a bit rough-and-tumble. A home with another compatible dog could be a great fit, though slow introductions are best. Bennie has medium energy and exercise needs—he loves playtime and would benefit from a yard to stretch his legs. He’s still young, so he can’t be crated for long workdays yet, but with consistency and training, he’ll continue to blossom. Bennie would do best with: -A family experienced with herding breeds -Someone willing to continue his training and give him “jobs” to do -A yard to play and explore -Another playful dog (if compatible) If you’re looking for a smart, loyal pup who will be deeply devoted to his person, Bennie may just be your perfect match.
