Meet Brennan!
Brennan is a young Border Collie pup who is equal parts sweet snuggler and high-energy daredevil! He loves being near his family and staying involved in whatever you're doing, and he will happily curl up for cuddles after a fun session of exploring, jumping, and chasing balls. With positive, consistent training and patience, this smart little superstar has incredible potential for agility or sports.
**Home Requirements & Socialization:**
#Experience & Environment: Prior Border Collie (or working breed) experience is required to ensure his high energy and smart mind are well-directed.
#People & Kids: He can be a bit timid or fearful when new people jump right into his personal space, but he warms up quickly once given a moment.
Brennan requires a home with children over 10 who can respect his boundaries while he builds confidence.
#Ongoing Commitment: He will need adopters dedicated to ongoing, appropriate training and socialization to help him continue working through his shy moments and grow into a confident adult.
#Dog Friends: Gets along wonderfully with his foster siblings. It takes him a couple of days to settle in with new canine friends, but once he does, he loves to play. He would thrive with a confident big dog brother or sister to show him the ropes!
**Training & Daily Routine:**
#Commands: Has a nice sit and recall.
#Work in Progress: Currently practicing his leash manners and learning that "off" means no counter-surfing (and that garden plants aren't meant for taste testing!).
#Crate & House Manners: Potty trained and sleeps soundly through the night in his crate.
**Health & Essentials:**
. Neutered
. Up to date on all age-appropriate vaccinations
. Microchipped
Brennan is a total gem of a pup who is so ready to blossom into a loving, loyal partner for the right family.
