We could not resist that adorable little face. He is a mini Australian Shepherd, and quite possibly has a little border collie mixed in there. He estimate him to be around 2 years old just based on his mannerisms and playstyle. He currently weighs 28 lbs. <br/><br/>Sparkie is a social guy and has done well meeting other pups and other people He is also in a foster home with cats and does fine. He LOVES attention and is actually quite Velcro.<br/><br/>Sparkie is a higher energy boy and he would do best with an active family that is willing to exercise him on a regular basis and another playful pup. He does have an off switch and can settle once he has had his daily exercise. He does extremely well at the dog park and doggie daycare. He would thrive in with someone who likes to go on regular hiking adventures, distance running or even a dog sport (agility, barn hunt, disc, etc).<br/><br/>Sparkie is working on grooming and learning basic commands.
