Please, read through the full bio, Archie is looking for a special home!
Meet Archie! This dynamo tiny mini/toy-sized Aussie has such a great spark and energy!
Archie had an unfortunate beginning to his short life being allowed to bark and lung at the front window if people, cars or squirrels went by. Creating an anxious and stressed out pup. He learned to react to strangers on the street and lunge at cars, bikes, and buses. This little guy was not exposed to many experiences as a young dog so he is wary of all that is new. His foster home is managing his interactions with the world and teaching him that new things are good. He is making such great strides but he is looking for a special home that will continue to work with this as well as manage his naughtiness.
Archie has learned that sitting at the side of the road brings the treats out, which has taught him to now ignore the scary things going by. He gives a low rumble or short bark to alert his foster mom someone is going by the house and gets rewarded with a treat for coming away. He has learned to ignore people that ignore him and is learning to ignore people that reach for him.
He was also a little nervous meeting new dogs at first, but has come so far. He now loves to run and chase his dog buddies.
Archie loves to engage in a good game of tug with his foster mom and will also play with toys in the house to keep himself amused. He’s a great cuddler (really what more do you need J ) on the couch and will wake you up in the morning by lying on your chest like a cat!
Archie has completed level 1 scent detection and is now working in beginner 2 scent class and loves the job (along with the treats!).
Archie walks well on a leash with his harness and travels well in the car. He is crate trained but complains when you first leave. When you come home he is quiet and will greet you with a toy in his mouth and sit to be let out. Archie is house trained and low maintenance in the house.
Archie requires a special home with adults only and a family or person willing to manage his interactions. A country or low-density neighborhood would be the best for Archie. Like a lot of herding dogs, he is protective of his home and yard. He must be put away when people come to the home and taken out on leash until he gets to know them slowly. He should not be introduced to new dogs in his yard but on neutral territory like a park. He requires a fenced yard where he can safely play and relax with these people. Archie requires a person or couple who are willing to work with him and to take things slowly. People who don’t have a lot of parties or people coming and going all the time.
