Woof woof! Hey there, I'm Pacific, and I'm a special kind of guy! The crew here seem to think I am a unique mix of Australian Kelpie and Shepherd. I weigh about 45 pounds, and while I may not be the biggest dog around, I make up for it with my big heart and gentle nature.
I've got something really special about me: I'm a homebody through and through. While other dogs may love adventures, I'm happiest in the comfort of my home, soaking up the peaceful vibes. A routine-based, predictable environment is what I thrive on. I'm not one for spontaneity or surprises-what I really need is a calm, steady place where I know what's coming next.
I get along famously with other dogs, and I'd love to have a canine buddy to help me feel more confident. I'm also great with cats, kids, and even small animals! There isn't an aggressive bone in my body-I'm all about love and companionship. Once I feel comfortable, I'll even share some sweet, gentle kisses.
If you're looking for a loyal, quiet companion who will adore a calm, structured life, then I'm your guy. I promise to make your home a more peaceful and loving place, and I can't wait to meet you!
