From foster parent:Junior- 1.5-2 yr old Cattle dog (Kelpie?) Husky-x, neutered maleJunior appears to get along well with other dogs, understood boundaries when he played too rough and never escalated. He did show some resource guarding towards a dog when chewing a bone, but easily allowed a human to take it away without incident. He was curious about the cat, but did not exhibit any prey drive tendencies towards it. He was not exposed to livestock or chickens so approach both with caution. He does seem to prefer women to men, but only just slightly. He is not fully housebroken and settles well in a crate or ex-pen as long as heâs had some mental and physical stimulation. Junior is a smart, sensitive and inquisitive dog who will take patience and good boundary-setting to learn the rules of your house. His leash manners are improving but will need work as will his tendency to want to counter-surf. Heâs been introduced to the word âoffâ and rewarded each time he puts four feet on the floor, so will need consistency with training to learn whatâs expected of him. He just relaxed enough in our home to start playing with toys and got very bouncy and silly last night. His nervousness will subside as he gets more comfortable in your home and that will make both training and playing with him more successful. He is not in-your-face kissy but is affectionate and friendly and does enjoy companionship. Please learn about both breeds as I believe he has some of the best traits of both. Please email us if you have any questions or concerns:
