Description
Dog Breed: Border Collie / Australian Shepherd / Mixed. Hitch (AL) is a 3monthold male Border Collie/Aussie Shepherd mix — or possibly a tiny genius disguised as a puppy — and he is absolutely convinced he’s the main character of your future. With his perfectly positioned black mask over each eye, Hitch looks like he’s moonlighting as a superhero or preparing to rob a bank of belly rubs. He is, without exaggeration, a very handsome guy who knows exactly how good he looks and uses it to his advantage every single minute of the day. But here’s the twist in his origin story: Hitch is still a bit unsure of his new situation. He’s timid at first, taking in the world with those masked eyes and trying to figure out who’s safe, who’s kind, and where he fits. He may need a little time to adjust — a gentle hand, a patient heart, and a home that understands that even superheroes get nervous when they land somewhere new. Once he realizes he’s safe, though? The sparkle comes out. The wiggles begin. The dramatic bellyflops return in full force. He’s wonderful with kids and adults and carries himself with the flair of a puppy who believes destiny has chosen him for greatness… he just needs a moment to believe it himself. Hitch agreed to a mani/pedi and an ear bath without any complaints! Hitch specializes in soulful stares, cautious curiosity, and joyful bursts of confidence that appear once he knows he’s loved. Hitch’s adoption fee is $650. If you’re ready for a puppy who will make your friends swoon and your neighbors gasp, apply to adopt Hitch at .rescuedogsrocknyc.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Border-Aussie, a captivating hybrid of the Australian Shepherd and Border Collie, is a relatively new designer breed gaining popularity for its intelligence and athleticism. Originating from the desire to combine the best traits of its highly trainable parent breeds, the Border-Aussie typically exhibits a medium build with a striking, often bi- or tri-colored coat that can be rough or smooth. Temperamentally, they are incredibly intelligent, energetic, and possess a strong work drive, making them eager to learn and excel in various dog sports. While generally good-natured and loyal, their high energy levels and need for mental stimulation make them best suited for active families or individuals who can provide consistent training and plenty of exercise; they are generally not ideal for apartment living. Potential owners should also be aware of common health concerns inherited from their parent breeds, such as hip and elbow dysplasia, eye conditions (like Collie Eye Anomaly), and epilepsy.
