My story

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

This is Jinx! A 5 month old aussie puppy who came from a bad beginning and is ready for his fresh start.

Jinx is a full australian shepherd…with a tail! And he definitely proves it. Jinx has a high toy and prey drive. He can be nippy and barky when playing chase with other dogs, but has gotten along well with all dogs. He does well with cats too, but will chase them if provoked. He has been introduced to children and gotten along with them, but because of his tendency to nip I would recommend a home with older children.

He loves treats, but I would say he is medium food drive as he can get distracted and uninterested easily. He is crate and potty trained. Sleeps in his kennel at night with no problems. He is also used to riding in the car in a crate, but will sometimes wine/bark for the first few minutes in the car.

He is very high energy and has a hard time settling outside the crate, but I think this could be worked on as he picks up on skills quickly. He loves to cuddle, but prefers his alone time in his kennel when he gets sleepy. He has shown a good disc drive and has been introduced to water, but was uninterested/did not want to swim. I think he would make a fun disc dog. He is a happy go lucky puppy who always has a smile on his face!

If Jinx sounds perfect for you, please fill out the application:
