Shamrock

Shamrock is 13 year old Patterdale Terrier mix. He is neutered, heartworm negative, and up-to-date on vaccines and monthly preventatives.<br/><br/>Shamrock has been with us since March 2025. We want all of our foster dogs to find their perfect match and fur-ever homes, no matter their requirements. We'd love your help finding Shamrock wonderful adopters that meet his particular needs.<br/><br/>Shamrock is a smart and observant dog, this is typical for the Patterdale terrier as they are a hunting breed. During a recent photography session, he showed his strength with how he paid attention to the non-verbal cues he was given. He was incredibly attuned to them and responded more quickly when he received commands with a non-verbal cue. <br/><br/>Like many a dog with a strong personality, he has a tendency to bark at other dogs while out walking. As a clever terrier, he seems to believe that he can outsmart people. With appropriate guidance he's taking corrections well and has realized that he enjoys the attention he gets while training.<br/><br/>Shamrock has a prey drive and will happily go after most birds, especially geese and ducks. If it's small and moves quickly, he's liable to chase it. Shamrock love of chasing means he loves to play fetch!<br/><br/>Shamrock isn't constantly in motion, in fact this independent gentleman likes to unwind and relax in his crate. He also enjoys hanging out on the couch and has been known to cuddle. He is more likely to relax if he's had the opportunity to get his energy out first.<br/><br/>Shamrock's ideal home is with an active person or family. No cats or other small animals, they are too fun to chase. We also think he'd do best in an adult-only home. He requires a yard to help meet his exercise needs.<br/><br/>Check out more pictures and complete an adoption application: https://www.fawnssmalldogrescue.org/adoptable-dogs/shamrock
