Vader's Story

MEET VADER – A true gentleman! <br/><br/>Are you looking for a dog who is gentle and sweet, with soulful eyes? Vader is the perfect combination of active companion and couch potato! He will sprawl out in front of the couch while his foster family watches TV. Vader also loves to go on casual walks, energetic jogs and long hikes- no pulling the leash! He copies your mood and just enjoys being with company. He truly is a sweetie. When he’s really very happy, his tail doesn’t just wag, it goes in circles like a helicopter! <br/>Vader is a beautiful 3-year-old Border Collie mix. He weighs 55 lbs. He is potty trained and has learned crate training while in foster. Vader knows how to sit, down, up, speak, fetch, and walk nicely on a leash. He learns quickly and is eager to please. Vader is a true gentleman!<br/><br/>VADER DOES WELL WITH:<br/>• Young Kids – Vader has lived with a 1-year-old baby/toddler and a 12-year-old child very happily. <br/>• Adults – Vader is friendly with adults. <br/> <br/>VADER WOULD NEED HELP WITH:<br/>• Learning to trust – When Vader is in a new situation, it takes him a little time to become comfortable. Once you build that relationship, he blossoms!<br/>• Other dogs – Vader had a female Golden Retriever friend at his last house and has done well with his current foster’s son’s dogs (a male and a female, both large). He has not been around small dogs. When Vader first came into HUNAH, we were told that he was reactive on leash. We think that he is more excited when seeing dogs. He turns back to tug on his leash, which shows the ability to redirect his excitement. We believe that a patient owner could work through this issue. Vader would need to meet other dogs in the household before placement. <br/>• Cats – Fast movement excites Vader. He has chased cats, so a cat-free home or a very slow, structured introduction would be best.<br/><br/>VADER IS UNKNOWN WITH:<br/>• Horses and Livestock – Vader has no experience.<br/><br/>THE REST OF THE IMPORTANT DETAILS<br/>Vader is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on his vaccinations. Vader is currently in Sequim, Washington. His adoption fee is $400. If you are interested in adopting Vader and are pre-approved, please contact the adoption team at hunahapps@gmail.com. If you are not already approved, you can fill out an application here: <br/>https://www.herduneededahome.com/adopting-with-hunah-1
