TRACE
| |
 |
Trace is a 1 year old, smooth coat, Border Collie with a fabulous disposition and one of the sweetest faces you'll ever see. He is a bit shy at first, but quickly warms up quickly to people in a new situation. He is overcoming his tentativeness quickly since he is in a busy office nearly every day with his foster mom. Trace has loved all other dogs he has met and bonded quickly with the other dogs in his foster home. A home without cats will be best for Trace. He is not aggressive, and most o the time he is very good with the cats in his foster home but can become fixated and want to chase. However, because he is such an excellent listener, comes will get out of chase mode immediately when told by his foster Mom. He also adores water and swimming. He is is great in the car and he is learning quickly that great things can happen at the end of a car ride...like a fun walk! He walks with several dogs nearly every day and does extremely well both off leash and on.
He is happy go lucky in spite of the fact he acts as if he was trained with a lot of negative reinforcement. He is responding to his positive reinforcement training extremely well. His new forever home will need to be committed to carry on his positive reinforcement training to build Trace's self-esteem. Trace is almost completely potty trained which happened very fast considering we are fairly certain he had never been in a house before. His house manners are excellent. He will do best in a home that is a medium loudness. Not too loud as he can get a little scared. However, Trace is overcoming this issue quickly as well. Trace is also crate trained and he has learned sit, down, is learning to wait, has excellent recall and he loves to give a paw. Trace is a joy to be around and everyone that meets him comments on his fantastic personality and it doesn't hurt that he is sweetness personified as well.
Trace is being fostered in San Diego County. |
