Description:

Sparky is a very handsome Collie Aussie mix who has attributes of both breeds. He is friendly, curious and very smart. He enjoys toys and loves to play but likes humans even more. He is excited to meet everyone that crosses his path.

Sparky could be an only dog but he would also do well with another non-dominant dog. A doggy sibling could help him transition into his new home faster by "showing him the ropes”. Sparky walks well on a leash and he is working on commands. He has mastered sit, wait, stay and come. He loves treats and takes them very gently. Sparky has also been around kids, ages 7 to 17 and does well.

Sparky is crate trained but is only crated when his foster family leaves the home. He also rides well in the car. His energy and attentiveness would make him a prime candidate for agility training and he would love being part of an active family. Sparky is very interested in squirrels and rabbits so he will need to be leashed or have a fenced in yard.
