King

UPDATED BIO<br/><br/>King came to us from our friends at Minneapolis Animal Control—an amazing organization. He has had a rough past, including being left in a hot car, which required emergency treatment for heat exhaustion, as well as wounds on his neck from a collar. Despite all of this, King’s spirit has remained incredibly loving and resilient.<br/><br/>King is a young blue merle male, estimated to be around 2 years old, with a big, fluffy tail to match his big personality. When he arrived at rescue, he weighed about 80 lbs and would benefit from losing around 10 pounds.<br/><br/>King has been living with a dedicated foster family who has spent time helping determine the type of forever home where he will truly thrive.<br/><br/>He is an absolute love bug with his people—he loves cuddling just as much as he loves to play. King can be a bit skeptical of new people at first, so slow, positive introductions are important.<br/><br/>King has done well with three stable dogs in his foster home. King would do best with a calm, confident canine companion who can set appropriate boundaries without being pushy. He enjoys the outdoors, especially walks and playtime. His leash manners are still a work in progress, but he is eager to learn and wants to please.<br/><br/>Like many Aussies, King has some herding instinct—but more than anything, he just doesn’t realize he isn’t a lap dog! He is housebroken and crate trained.<br/><br/>King’s Ideal Home:<br/><br/>1: Quiet environment <br/><br/>2: Another stable, well-balanced dog<br/><br/>3: Patient adopter willing to continue training <br/><br/>4: Possibly a country or farm setting with clear boundaries<br/><br/>King is currently being fostered in northern Minnesota.<br/><br/>The details:<br/><br/>Needs fence? Not required, but reliable recall will need to be established before going off lead.<br/><br/>Good with dogs? Yes, with slow introductions<br/><br/>Good with cats? Will chase<br/><br/>Good with kids? Children aged 10 or older<br/><br/>All of our dogs live in foster homes with volunteers. We need an approved application on file to set up a meeting with a dog you might be interested in. You can find our application at www.aussierescuemn.com. All dogs have an adoption fee of $400 plus MN sales tax. We pride ourselves on matches that are awesome for both the dog and your family. Aussie Rescue of MN is here for support, advice and as a safety net for our dogs for the rest of their lives.
