0831 Finn

Finn is fostered in New Buffalo MI<br/><br/>Meet adorable Finn, a sweet and sassy, silky soft, tricolor mini, Aussie that administers hugs on request. The true definition of a Velcro dog, he loves being with his person and a doggy sibling. Energetic and driven, there is no ball he won't chase or command and trick he isn't excited to learn. Finn needs an active person to continue the extensive list of activities he has already started to learn. He picks things up very quickly and is a joy to train. He is highly praise and food driven. <br/><br/>He will attach to his new person or people quickly but is standoffish at first with new people. Once a bond is formed, he loves his people with all of his huge heart. Finn is a sensitive soul and before coming to rescue wasn't treated very well. His previous people used some harsh devices on him, so it caused some anxiety for him. <br/><br/>He will be 3 on September 18th and weighs 26 lbs. He will need a large fenced in yard where he can chase balls, play with a doggie sibling and run his little heart out. Now that he has discovered his love of agility and Nosework, he enjoys backyard practice too.<br/><br/>Finn has spent the last year on quite the learning journey. Everything from basic obedience, nosework, beginning agility, a focused, home-based, two-week training program and daily practice of all of the commands he knows. He is SUPER smart and loves to learn. <br/><br/>He would thrive with someone who will continue all that he has learned and would be an excellent performance dog. His people should be active, have herding dog or similar breed experience and confidence to meet the needs and the traits of an Aussie. He would LOVE to be someone's sidekick and go places and do things with them. He is very true to the Aussie breed and loves to be with his humans. He is great with other dogs and even cats. We recommend no young kids for Finn as they scare him. We think children 14 and older would be ideal for him, or better yet, an older couple with limited children visiting. Finn has great house manners. He is crate trained, but he doesn't love it and can be trusted in the house for long periods of time. Could you be the lucky person to build on the excellent foundation that Finn has been working on over the past year?<br/><br/>Finn is neutered, up-to-date on all vaccinations, heartworm negative, microchipped and receiving monthly preventatives for fleas, ticks and heartworms. Proof of heartworm prevention for any current or previous pets is required to adopt from our organization.
