THEO - Shetland Sheepdog Sheltie Dog for Adoption in Shell Knob, Missouri

THEO is a handsome and sweet 6.5 yr old, neutered male, sheltie who was surrendered by his family (lacking time for him). He weighs approximately 30# and has previously been shaved. When his hair grows out, it will be a gorgeous sable color (not light tan as it is now). He's a good boy, just a tad (soft/deep) barky. He knows several commands, loves snuggling with his person on the couch, and is reliably housetrained. Previous owners claim he is fine with cats. He is scheduled for a dental Sept. 4th and will be available to go to his new home after that date. He walks nicely on leash (not in heal position). He will chase vehicles; a FENCED YARD is mandatory.
