Description
Dog Breed: Australian Shepherd. Poco is an Austrian Shepherd puppy with a big personality packed into her petite 7-pound frame. At just 12 weeks old, this sweet girl is already showing how smart and adventurous she is. She is inquisitive and affectionate with both people and other dogs, always eager to run around and play or curl up in a lap. She can be curious and brave, always ready to explore her surroundings, or perfectly content entertaining herself when necessary. Around other dogs, she leans towards being more submissive until she knows for certain they are friendly, but then has a blast running around in a fenced yard or sharing toys. She learns new games quickly and is picking up potty training just as fast. After a hard day of playing she loves cozy naps in her crate. While she was born blind in one eye, it’s had no noticeable effect on her happy and playful behavior. As with any young puppy, Poco would do best in a household where someone will be around during the day. If you’re looking for a loving, playful, and snuggly companion, Poco might just be your perfect match! If you are interested in meeting Poco the first step is to complete our meet and greet application at .corgisandfriends/forms We require the application, home and reference check and meet with everyone in the home. Poco is spayed, UTD on age appropriate vaccines, and chipped. Her adoption fee is $425 and we do not adopt outside of Colorado.

Overview:
The Australian Shepherd, despite its name, actually originated in the western United States during the 19th century, bred primarily for herding livestock on ranches. These striking dogs are medium-sized with a sturdy build, often sporting captivating merle coats (blue or red) and piercing blue, amber, or marbled eyes, sometimes with two different colors (heterochromia). Known for their exceptional intelligence and high energy, Aussies possess a strong work drive and thrive on having a "job" to do, whether it's agility, obedience, or extensive exercise. Their temperament is generally loyal, affectionate, and good-natured with their families, though they can be reserved with strangers. Due to their high exercise requirements and need for mental stimulation, they are best suited for active families or individuals with ample outdoor space and a commitment to training; apartment living is generally not ideal. Potential owners should also be aware of common health concerns like hip and elbow dysplasia and certain eye conditions, including Collie Eye Anomaly (CEA) and Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA).
