Description:
Grant is a 1 yr old Border Collie mix. He is a really sweet dog, who loves to be with his people. He loves to chase a ball, but does not yet understand the concept of bringing it back. He loves playing with my other dog, and is always wagging his tail at the neighbor dogs. He is potty trained and will whine to let you know when he has to go out, but if he gets busy playing, sometimes he forgets. But he has only had a couple accidents. He can be left unattended, and doesn’t get into much. He likes to drag his blanket around to where he wants to sleep and occasionally has dragged other things like a sock, but did not chew it up. He did chew up a few pencils my son left out, but really isn’t a destructive dog. He has not been around children younger than 12 or cats, so we are not sure how he will behave around them. He knows to sit for his food, and is learning to wait a little more patiently. We are still in the process of teaching him to walk well on a leash, so he still pulls quite a bit and will need additional training. When really excited, he does jump up on us, but is starting to learn what “down” means. He does get crated for a few hours when I am not home, since I have other dogs, and he doesn’t love his crate, but will go in for a cheese filled Kong, and will stay quiet while I am gone. If you have any additional questions, feel free to email me at mcgees@wideopenwest.com
The petfinder.com system requires that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our dogs. Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable so for most of the dogs we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label. Last Day Dog Rescue now microchips all animals before adoption. Microchips are implanted between the animals shoulder blades and are a permanent form of identification. The microchips are registered to Last Day Dog Rescue with the adopter's info added once adopted. If the animal is ever lost and slips his/her collar/tags the microchip allows the finder to know who to contact if scanned for a microchip. Animals MUST still have a collar with tags on at all times. Per our contract, we take all our animals back if for any reason you can't keep your adopted animal. Please understand the statements about this animal are based upon the foster home's evaluation of the animal. The animal might behave differently (negatively or positively) in your home. While the animal might be good with the current foster’s dogs, cats, children, etc., it may not be with your animal(s) or children. The animal may be housebroken or litter trained in the home of the foster but may relapse in your home. The animal is represented to the public as it performs in the foster home and any statements made regarding the animal are conditional to that foster home setting. Please understand that statements made regarding this animal are simply overviews and are not guaranteed.
