Pickles
Meet Pickles!
Pickles is with his new foster family
and is doing great!
Here is what his new foster mom sent:
Hi, I’m Pickles or Pick. My foster mom says I’m special. I’m a 2-year-old Border Collie MIx. She says I’m: sweet, playful, eager to please, exuberant, and a cuddle buddy who wants to be with his people. I am well mannered and house-trained. I don't need a sport home, but I would love a big family and a busy household with children, probably over the age of 6, since I am only 2. I like all people, but men and kids most of all. I get along with other dogs (Foster Mom has 3). There are no cats at my foster home, but I like the goats and chickens. (Please supervise me until I understand the rules). I need to be introduced to new people slowly, as I had a scary shelter experience. My foster mom says I’ve settled in and am fine meeting people at her house or at the park.
Previous Info:
Pickles was shut down when he first left the shelter. He took some time to get out of the car. He does warm up quickly! Loves to be with his people and will follow you around the house.
Stranger Danger: Pickles seems fine with strangers nearby ignoring him, but when they acknowledge him or makes eye contact, he backs up and barks.
He loves to play, especially ball! Also loves stuffies! He responds to his name and seems to have good recall but he is staying on the long line just in case. He does not chase moving items like bikes or cars. No reaction to the neighbors dog barking at him through the fence.
And in typical BC fashion,
wants to kill the vacuum!
He’s good for helping his humans clear out the cheese drawer! Haha
Curious about dog savvy cats but does not appear to have a strong prey drive. Keeps an eye on deer and small critters outside but has not shown any interest in chasing them.
Pickles is being fostered in Arkport NY
