Estimated date of birth is 10/15/2024, weight 50 lbs.
Shep is a fun junky that loves to play / play chase with other dogs (sometimes it looks like Wrestlemania), but his second favorite activity is to hang out with his foster mom. He’s such a goofball, always optimistic, always sure that a treat is hiding in your pocket and it has his name on it! A sweet potato – yes. A couch potato – not so much, although when he’s worn out, he does relax and loves to be petted while he snoozes on his dog cot.
As a herding breed mix, Shep is into lots of exercise and enjoys both physical and mental stimulation. He has had some training and knows the basics (Sit, Down, Stay, Drop it). He also knows how to use the doggy door and stairs, is OK with baths, and loves to go on walks.
Shep was abandoned by his original owner and took up residence at a home down the street. He got to play with new canine friends and had plenty of acreage to run around but he can’t live with cats, he thinks they’re toys and will chase them.
Shep’s ideal home environment would have a mom / dad with an active lifestyle, a big canine sister (or brother) to play and snuggle with, and a nice size backyard to run around and get the zoomies out. Are you up for it!?
