My story

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


Collier was rescued from a high kill shelter as a small puppy in the late spring of 2024 . He is a easy dog to have in the house, as he does not chew on furniture or items which are not his and he is completely housebroken and crate trained. He knows basic commands like sit, stay, drop ect. My husband is allergic to dogs thus the reason we are rehoming. We have cats and he can be overly rambunctious for them but if they stand their ground he leaves them alone. Because of his herding dog mix he has nipping tendencies so I would not put him with very young children, however he absolutely loves children and other dogs. He can be wary of strangers and would benefit from more socializing and training, I feel he has a great deal of potential that I have been unable to bring out of him due to my inexperience. All in all he is a very attractive, smart, sweet dog and deserves a home where he can flourish.
The pet fee will go towards a flood victims charity.
