Erling

Description

Meet Erling, a 3-month-old Australian Shepherd mix weighing just under 10 pounds. This sweet little guy has already overcome more than any puppy should. While we don't know what happened before he came into our care, his battered ears and patch of missing hair tell a story. Thankfully, as his foster mom says, "Whatever trauma he faced before does not seem to have impacted his love and trust of others." Like any puppy, Erling is full of curiosity, playfulness, and sharp little teeth! He loves toys, sturdy chew toys, and car rides, and he's always ready to explore the world around him. As he grows, he'll need a family committed to helping him learn everything a puppy needs to know, including house training, crate training, and basic manners. Erling has been around the older dogs in his foster home, though they aren't quite sure what to make of such a rambunctious youngster. He's also seen the resident cat but hasn't had direct interactions. He hasn't been exposed to children yet, but we think older kids who understand typical puppy antics would be the best fit. Friendly, outgoing, happy, and resilient, Erling has an incredible future ahead of him. All he needs now is a family to help him grow into the amazing dog he's meant to be. His minimum adoption fee is $350 plus a $15 fee, if 4 months or older, for rabies registration for McLean County residents. He has been neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.
