Corky - Australian Shepherd and Terrier Dog for Adoption in Riverside, California

Meet Corky!
At 12 years young, Corky is proof that age is just a number. This adorable Australian Shepherd/Terrier mix found himself at the shelter after his family moved, but he's ready to find a forever home that will love him through his golden years.
His foster mom affectionately calls him Porky because mealtime is his absolute favorite part of the day! Corky is fully potty trained and has never had an accident in his foster home. He's also a quiet companion who rarely barks—though that may be because his hearing isn't what it used to be.
Corky can be a little shy when meeting new people, but give him a little time and you'll see his fun, puppy-like personality shine through. Once he trusts you, he's full of love, enjoys everyone he meets, and still has plenty of playful energy left. He's also wonderful with other dogs and would be happy to share his home with a canine companion.
If you're looking for a loyal, easygoing best friend who loves treats, naps, and being part of the family, Corky is waiting to meet you. Senior dogs have so much love to give, and Corky is ready to spend his golden years showing you just how special they are.
