Bert adoption pending

Description

Bert is 8 mths old and new to our rescue. At just 8 months old, collie/sheltie mix Bert has a dazzling personality. When meeting anyone new, he happily wags his tail and then flops down hoping for belly rubs and pets. People smile at his request and he smiles back! His friendly nature extends to the canines he has met, and he enjoys making new friends during successful neighborhood walks on a leash.   Bert’s foster family just loves him, and the feeling is definitely mutual. In fact, he prefers his humans to be outside with him. He’ll pace nervously, eager to head back inside if he loses sight of them. Once he knows he is safe, Bert enjoys exploring the yard, chasing squirrels and rabbits. In his foster home, he prefers to be by his foster mom’s side, accepting regular snuggles and cuddles.    As a young dog, Bert is still learning his commands. Thankfully, he is highly motivated by treats and has already mastered “sit” and “off.” He’s also been introduced to toys and still needs to learn how to play. Continued training will help him build confidence and learn new skills, and he’s a quick-learner who is eager to please.   A real charmer, this boy will melt your heart. Bert will make an amazing addition to his new home and will truly be missed by his foster family!
