Rico - *URGT* NEEDS IMMED FOSTER HOME Australian Shepherd & Collie Mix New York, NY

My name is RICO and I’m an adorable 3 yr M Mini Aussie/Shepherd X. I’m 30 lbs of PURE HAPPY SMILIN PAPPY!! I’m being rehomed due to NO TIME. I’m a super friendly, very active little quick footed dancing leprechaun and I need daily interactive exercise & discipline. Im very athletic and love to run and play and am an expert ball player/fetcher.

My previous owners hardly took me out so I need further training. I pull a bit & am jumpy and excitable, so I will need leash training and to have better manners. Unfortunately I also need further housetraining as my owners let me go on wee wee pads in the house.

Luckily I’m SUPER SMART, EAGER TO PLEASE and QUICK to LEARN and a prime student for training but I need an active Person/Couple Family that has the time to devote to training me.

I LOVE other dogs and have to say hello to every dog I meet. I’m a little pushy and overwhelming with little dogs because I just want to PLAY PLAY PLAY. I would LOVE to go be with another dog my size or bigger and one that has energy like me! I’ve met a cat but wanted to play with it so I could live with a cat but it would have to be a cat that wouldn’t mind playing with me. I do like to chase squirrels and rabbits when I see them outside. I’m a little jumpy for young children so older kids ages 8 yrs+ would be best.

Even though I’m a petite guy and perfect apt sized.. I would LOVE a fenced in yard so I can do super zoomies and fetch balls to my hearts content but ample time at a dog run or park would be ok.. I just can’t sit at home twiddling my paws anymore.. that is NOT the life for me!

IF you’re looking for that Sweet Happy Lil Dancing Leprechaun of a Companion that will keep you on your toes and full of SMILES and GIGGLES… Come meet me today!
