PUNKIES

If you love herding breeds but can’t choose which kind to adopt, Punkies is your guy! His genetic mix includes Border Collie, Australian Shepherd, Cattle Dog, and Sheepdog—all rolled into one amazing pup. <br/><br/>Punkies is a 3 year old, 40 lb clown in a dog suit. This goofy guy is very entertaining, cuddly and enjoys hanging with his family, which includes two adult humanoids, two border collies and a German shepherd. Punkies is a confident and friendly lad, but as with many youngsters he can be a bit shy with new people at first; however, he warms up quickly. <br/><br/>One of Punkies’ most charming traits is his love of ‘talking,’ a playful hint that he also has a bit of a husky heritage. He can even be a bit argumentative at times. His new family should be prepared for many comical conversations with him.<br/><br/>Punkies has a moderate energy level that fits perfectly with family-friendly routines and activities. With his balanced energy, Punkies is an ideal match for an active yet easygoing family lifestyle. He is able to stay home without anxiety issues and lavishes his humans with affection when they return. <br/><br/>Because his genetics have given him an inherited "herdiness" Punkies ideal family match would be one with older, dog-savvy children who can understand and respect his need to round them up - a talent that is great for mom when dinner is ready!<br/><br/>Since being in foster care, Punkies has learned to enjoy toys and play nicely with other dogs, making him a wonderful all-around companion. His intelligence, athleticism and herding instincts also make him a great prospect for sporting or herding activities for those who want to take things to the next level with him.<br/><br/>Punkies is best suited to a home with people having a basic understanding of herding behavior (or who are willing to learn) and who have a good size fenced yard for off leash exercise. <br/><br/>Punkies is crate trained, neutered, heartworm negative, up-to-date on vaccinations, on monthly heartworm, tick & flea preventives! <br/><br/> Punkies is being fostered in New Port News, VA by Atlantic Region Central Border Collie Rescue.<br/><br/>If you would like more information on Punkies you can email mcclellanka@gmail.com or apply to adopt below.<br/><br/>Punkies is neutered, up to date on shots & on tick & flea preventives!
