Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Carlo is a very energetic 4-and-a-1/2-year-old border collie mix who is looking to re-home somewhere with more space for him to run and play.
Carlo is very well-loved in his current family, but he admittedly needs more space and engagement day-to-day than his current single-dog, apartment life provides. It is apparent Carlo is getting a bit more anxious without suitable stimulation and exercise. Border collies like to have a lot to engage their agile minds and energetic bodies. (Though, to note, he does not chew or destroy things; he is incredibly well-behaved.)
Carlo is great around humans, children, and dogs. He has three dog best friends in Ohio he plays with whenever we can get out there. He does like herding a bit when he meets them each time, but calms down after a day. Carlo loves his toys, to play fetch, and to learn new commands. He is a highly intelligent dog.
Carlo was acquired from the York SPCA in December 2019. He is fixed and up to date on all shots. He is a good dog.
