My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Neo is a Border Collie mix who came to us from a shelter out in the boonies of East Texas. He and his sister got in some trouble for chasing the neighbor’s expensive horse into a barbed wire fence and seriously injuring it. The man was told he had to get rid of his dogs, so off to the shelter they went. We got a call to see if I could foster poor Neo, not knowing that his sister came with the package. Neo is a wonderfully sweet dog who loves to swim and play fetch. He has a habit of standing on anything he can to see himself in a window and bark at his own reflection.

Neo has developed a fear of shadows. When there is lightning or as the day fades into darkness, Neo becomes very afraid and will hurt himself trying to find a safe place. The best thing to do for him during those times is to crate him and secure the crate shut with zip ties. He is fine during the day and a friendly, wonderful dog. He simply has extreme fear issues and drugs do not help alleviate them.
