Breed: Herding Mix
Hi there! I’m Aston, a happy playful puppy searching for my perfect forever family. Could that be you?
My Story:
I’ve had a rough start in life. My siblings and I were born on Halloween on the streets of Texas. Our mom, barely more than a puppy herself, was underweight and struggled to survive on scraps. Thankfully, a kind lady found us shortly after we were born and brought us to a shelter. From there, Safe Haven stepped in, and at just nine days old, we made the journey to Illinois. For the past 12 weeks, my foster family has taken wonderful care of me, and now I’m ready to find my forever home.
About Me:
I’m the silly playful puppy of my litter. I love to be vocal at playtime and would enjoy a family of my own to play fetch, tug-of-war, chase, or just enjoy a good snuggle session. My foster mom says my chocolate brown eyes are my secret weapon for winning hearts!
What I’m Working On:
Potty Training: I love going outside and have started doing my business in the yard. I love to explore and don’t mind the cold or snow. With proper training I will catch on to the “potty outside” command rather quick.
Crate and Leash Training: I haven’t started crate or leash training yet, but I do get confined to a penned area when my foster family is gone and at bedtime.
I am very food motivated and with your patience and continued guidance I will master all of these life skills quickly.
The Perfect Home for Me:
Kids: Due to my silly playful nature I’d love to be part of a family with children. I also enjoy snuggles, tail-wagging greetings, and playtime.
Other Dogs: I’d do great in a home with another dog! My foster home has three dogs of different sizes and ages, and I love learning from them.
Active Lifestyle: Due to my silly playful nature I would thrive with a family that gives me fun activities and love.
Why I’m Special:
At 13 weeks old and 19 pounds, my foster mom thinks I’ll grow to be a medium-large sized dog. I’ve got a happy, playful and loving personality, and I’m eager to please. I’ll be the perfect addition to a family that’s ready to help me learn and grow into a wonderful companion.
A Gentle Reminder:
Puppies like me need someone who’s patient, caring, and willing to invest time in training and socialization. Positive reinforcement, consistency, and patience are the keys to raising a happy, well-adjusted pup.
