My story

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

Gancho is a very affectionate border collie that we have had for four months after he was abandoned by his previous owner. He has been great with loud kids and chaos, was quick to train on our electric fence, is very eager to train, doesn’t have accidents inside, friendly as can be, and does well with our other dogs. He has no food aggression, but thinks cats are food. Outside he runs, inside is chill. We are unsure of what happened to him with the previous owner, but he has had several instances where he has snapped at us seeming scared. Specific examples: my husband touched his ear while he was relaxed on the couch and he snapped at him. I was smelling him after he came inside and he snapped at me. Both times he responded well to a firm no and came back to snuggle, but with the number of people in our house, we don’t feel we can take the risk. He would do well in a family more experienced with rescues than we are. We love him dearly and want to make sure he has the home he deserves.
