Male Dog, Australian Shepherd
Australian Shepherd (Medium Coat)
Description:
Meet Barry! He's a very sweet and loving 3-year-old Australian Shepherd. He's only known life as a beloved family pet and has never been in a shelter. His family had a baby recently, and his excitement around the movement of small children in the home has led his loving family to decide to look for a child-free home for Barry. Summit Dog Rescue agrees that a new home would be best for all involved. Barry would really enjoy a home where he could be the center of attention. Ideally he'd hike a few miles a day and learn new fun stuff on a regular basis. Aussies are bred to learn and work, so a home open to meeting his mental enrichment needs and taking him out on fun adventures is what we're looking for. Barry has only lived in the mountains, but he does to to doggie daycare in Boulder regularly and does well there. His ideal home would be in the mountains or in a place where he could easily access trails on a regular basis. He's working on his loose leash walking skills and doing great. This boy is super special and we love him. His adoption fee would be to his current guardians but would be nominal. We would require you sign up for training with one of our recommended fear-free trainers, so that Barry is successful in his forever home. For more info and/or to apply to adopt Barry, send us an email at [email protected] , telling us a bit about yourself, your home environment and your lifestyle. A volunteer will get back to you shortly.
