Turbo

Turbo is a few years old Mini Australian Shepherd who is just beginning to learn what life outside of a breeder environment looks like. He startles easily and is still figuring out that the world, mostly humans, can be safe. Turbo is most comfortable in his kennel and is primarily kennel trained at this point, though he does bark from time to time and does have the occasional accident. He is housebroken for short periods but will need a patient home that understands accidents are part of the learning process and that consistency will be key to his success.<br/><br/>Turbo is very fearful of people right now and is not the type of dog who will run up for attention from strangers. He also does poorly on a leash and is not able to walk on one at this time, so a secure setup (fenced in backyard required) and a commitment to slow, positive leash training will be important. While people are scary to him, he finds comfort in animals. He does well with cats and THRIVES around well balanced, confident dogs who can help show him the ropes and build his confidence. With time and consistency, Turbo has shown that he can form deep bonds, he has grown to love his foster mom and will climb into her lap for attention during quiet snuggle time in the house. Turbo is a sensitive, fearful dog who needs patience, structure, and kindness, but in the right home, he has the potential to continue building trust and confidence and become a deeply devoted companion.<br/><br/>If you think you have the time and patience for a sweet pup like turbo, apply to adopt him at the link below. <br/><br/>https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdy9NUdRzsagXgNJ7xhCHp5LZnTUYFxN-2jh4HgXKTou9k-tA/viewform
