Fawkes

Meet Fawkes (a.k.a., Rye - just look at those eyes!), a 1-year-old border collie mix, weighing in at about 38 pounds. Fawkes was surrendered by a commercial breeder after not selling. Fawkes is learning to become a more confident dog now that he lives in a family with another dog and cats. He's not particularly vocal, which is a nice touch for a herding breed dog. He's been tested with children 9 & over, cats, and a larger dog. He has lots of energy and enjoys going on leashed walks in the park or around the neighborhood as well as playing with other dogs off leash in a securely fenced yard. Unsurprisingly he's super fast! Fawkes would enjoy a canine companion in his new home. He is wary of his feline housemates (they have pointy bits!), but does not chase them. He's food driven and lovestreats of all sorts. This boy is very bright and highly trainable. He enthusiastically responds to commands and under gentle leadership will thrive and become more confident. Someone who can give him the exercise and stimulation he craves is ideal. Fawkes has mastered going up and down stairs in a split-level house, leash walking, and sitting on command. Fawkes is a little nervous on car rides, but with exposure he'd probably come to enjoy them more. He likes his cage and sleeps soundly in it at night. Fawkes is potty-trained, but regression is common. Fawkes is being fostered near Valley Forge National Park, so his adoptive family will need to travel there for a meet-and-greet. Fawkes is UTD on vaccines, microchipped, dewormed, neutered, and has been on flea/tick/heartworm prevention since coming into the rescue.
