Story
Whiskey is a gorgeous merle, retriever/herding mix, with soulful brown eyes that are just begging for an experienced owner to continue the confidence building and obedience training he has begun at Rogers K9. Whiskey is able to heal nicely and to maintain sit/stay as well as down stay.
He has a lot of energy, typical of his breed mix and loves to play fetch. Whiskey is most comfortable with familiar people; he takes some time to trust.
Because he has some herding breed qualities, he may be best as an only dog. A fenced in yard will help manage his energy level. Whiskey is almost 3 years old (DNA in photos) and he weighs 65 lbs. Whiskey is house-trained, crate-trained, and knows all his commands. He is very smart and learns fast. With Whiskey's breed mix he will require daily exercise. He is looking for someone with Aussie mix experience. He has lived with children (over age of 10) and is loyal to his family members. He has also been in a foster home that had a cat.
Whiskey is neutered, completely vaccinated and microchipped. Whiskey is not a "plug and play" dog, he will need someone willing to continue working with him;-)
Whiskey is currently at Rogers K9 board and train. We are in need of a foster home as he searches for his forever home. If you are interested in fostering, please submit a foster form. LAS provides everything for the foster program.
If you are interested in Whiskey, please submit an online application so we can learn a little about you to make sure he would be a good match for you. We do not do out of state adoptions, due to our trial adoption process. Adoption fee/donation is $150.00
If you have specific questions, please email the adoption coordinator at info@loveastraydog.com If you can't foster or adopt, please consider donating to help us with medical expenses and ongoing care.
