My story

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

Indigo and his litter mates were dropped off at an overly full shelter in NC when they were about 6-7 months old. They were afraid and under socialized. About a month later they were transferred to yet another shelter where we met Indigo.
We are working on him getting more confidence by going on outings and introducing him to new surroundings/people/dogs. He’s doing very well but still needs more time doing these things.

In the house his "puppyness" is starting to show. He’s more comfortable inside and will become a more normal goofy puppy that makes us laugh every day.
He’s doing well with his housebreaking but will need to be taken out after he’s had food and nap time. Indigo responds to Uhuh (as in “no”) and he’s doing very well in the house overall apart from the occasional chewing on things he shouldn’t. We are working on crate training and he’s doing better every day. We transport him in a crate in the car and he’s getting much more comfortable with that as well. Now he sleeps through the car ride.

For his breed. Your guess is our guess. We are thinking he might have some Cattle Dog in him?

Indigo hasn’t been around children and is afraid of them. Therefore, we recommend a home without kids. He’s done extremely well with the other foster dog in the home (he’s quite smitten with Miss Jessie) and we like the way she sometimes bosses him around.

Please come meet this adorable pup with radar ears. If you have any questions about him please let us know. We will be happy to answer them.
