MILES – ADOPTED

Male, 2 years, 56 lbs

MILES is a two-year-old 56-pound Border Collie-blend with a beautiful red and white rough (long) coat, golden eyes, and a magnificently feathered tail.  This boy has a dream personality – he is always assessing his environment and shaping his behavior to maintain a peaceful, kind and playful demeanor. As an example, his foster BC sister generally avoids larger dogs; MILES understood her from their first meeting and let her take the lead in accepting him. After three days, he had gained her confidence and had her playing; we were gob smacked! MILES is smart and loves nothing better than to be with his people, but loves dog company as well. At night, MILES sleeps the entire night in his pen.

MILES is housebroken and is treat motivated, and will benefit from your instruction on basic obedience skills. As a big boy, we’ve been using a pen (4-foot high panels) which makes confinement comfortable for him. MILES likes to ride in the car to see what adventure awaits, but is prone to car sickness. He shares a household with cats and two dogs.

MILES is micro-chipped, neutered, heartworm negative and on preventative, and up-to-date on vaccinations.
