Sparky is a Border Collie Mix. He is Black and White. Sparky is 1 Year Old. He is neutered and up to date on his shots. He weighs around 41 lbs.
Sparky is a handsome young man! He was found wandering as a stray when a rural high kill pound picked him up. Sparky has many of the wonderful traits of a Border Collie, he listens well, loves everyone he meets and just wants to be your Co. Pilot everywhere you are. He loves to sit in office chairs, next to you on the couch or even on a park bench. All you have to do is pat the seat next to you and up he goes. Sparky would probably be an excellent agility dog with some training. Outside he loves to run around and play and climb up hills and over rocks. He loves being outdoors with you and is the perfect walking companion. When Sparky comes back inside from playing he wanders around looking for someone else to play with and when everyone else is tired he lays down on his dog bed and takes naps. He loves all treats so that's an easy way to teach Sparky new tricks, he already knows "Sit" although he'd rather sit next to you than on the floor. Sparky will make anyone a great companion.
Sparky would do well in any household. He's loved everyone he's met so far including adults, kids and other dogs. We would love for Sparky to go to a home with a big fenced in back yard so he can run and play. Sparky is a smart boy so if his new family would take him to obedience classes Sparky probably could become off leash. He is already completely crated trained and housetrained. He loves riding in cars and especially loves if he's able to be your Co. Pilot and ride beside you in the front seat. Sparky walks well on the leash and loves when he's on the retractable leash because that gives him sixteen feet to wander around and sniff. He would love to go to a home with another dog or two to play with or be able to go to a dog park once in awhile. Sparky loves to play with any dog who wants to play which makes him a very nice addition to a home that there already is a dog in. Sparky's an adorable little man who just wants someone to have fun with!
Sparky is not aggressive with other dogs, he has been with small, large, young and old dogs.
