Golden Retriever and Australian Shepherd Dogs Available for Adoption in Chatham, New Jersey

My name is Thor. My name sounds big and tough but I promise, I am not either of those! I am almost 5 months old and about 30 to 35 lbs. You might ask, I am listed as a Golden/Aussie mix, why am I not golden in color? Well, genes work in mysterious ways. I am a sweet boy. I love other dogs and could easily live with another super nice playmate. I play well and can keep up with the big dogs and also have fun with the other foster puppy in my home. I love people. After the initial few minutes of getting comfortable, I am snuggly and so loving. I meet new people almost every day in my foster home and that has been really good for me! I am good with kids and would be perfectly fine living with some respectful kiddos. I'm also good with cats. I love toys and I love to play fetch! I am a natural (no surprise there). We think swimming or kiddie pools could be in my future. I certainly loved the sprinklers. I am almost there with my housebreaking. A couple more weeks of consistency and I am "golden" (but not in color). A fenced in yard and single family home is required for me. I am located in NJ.
