Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi, this is Quinn! Located in Thornton NH
He is approximately a year and a half old, neutered male, and mostly Aussie (with maybe a little bit of something else mixed in).
Quinn is the funniest, goofiest foster we've had yet! He's a great snuggler, and loves to be with his people! He is currently being fostered with four other dogs! Because he's kind of goofy, sometimes the other dogs get annoyed with him. So he would be fine in a home without any other pets, or with well-balanced, friendly, and submissive dogs.
Quinn's foster home also has two kids under the age of six. Sometimes, their crazy antics make him nervous, so he might be better suited in a home with slightly older kids.
Quinn is fully vetted and healthy (he's being treated for an ear infection, but doesn't have any current symptoms). That said, we did have him checked out for the weird gait that he has in his back end. It appears he experienced a traumatic injury in the past, which affected his hips. It doesn't stop him from walking, running, or hiking, but he may get some arthritis in his old age, much later on in life.
Quinn is working on his leash skills, and basic obedience. Quinn needs a calm, confident, pack leader to help him finish his basic training. He is crate trained and does his business outside.
Quinn has the sweetest face. And everyone who has met him immediately falls in love with him. He is silly, and loving, and trusting. He would make an amazing addition to your family!
