Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Introducing Comet in Mooresville, NC- a beautiful red tri Aussie and the absolute best boy! Comet will be 8 years old on Dec. 21st and comes to rescue due to a military deployment and change in living arrangements.
He weighs about 45 pounds and is an all around great pup that is HIGH Velcro! Comet would love nothing more than for you to love on him and pet him as much as possible 😊 He is well behaved with good leash and meal time manners. He takes treats gently and loves to play with toys and go for long walks.
Comet is being fostered with 3 dogs and would not mind a canine companion although it is not necessary as he would be perfectly content to be the center of your universe! Comet can be playful and enjoys toys and even playing ball sometimes. His wish list includes a fenced yard but someone who takes him on long walks daily would make him very happy. He does have a prey drive (he thinks the parrot may be the most interesting squeaky toy he has ever seen) but he is easily redirected. He has not been cat tested so a kitty free home may be recommended.
Comet is potty trained and has not had any accidents (we take him out at least 4 times a day). He is an early riser and needs to go out at 6:45am. He will gently wake you with his nose or you may just feel him staring at you. Comet will go into his crate (we give him a treat to sweeten the deal) but we have found him to be quite content to lay around the house and not destructive so we leave him out almost all the time.
If you are looking for a companion to share long walks, hang out with and love on, Comet may be the boy for you. He has so much love to give and deserves his furever family!
Comet is fostered in Mooresville, NC and a meet in greet will be required. Due to his size and enthusiasm, we recommend homes with children over 12.
Here is the application:

There is an additional $20 microchip fee which includes registration and transfer to his new furever family. All adoption fees are used for future rescue efforts.
