FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME NEEDED: When beauty is combined with smarts, you get Neptune! He is a beautiful, 2.5-year-old, 50 lb, Australian Shepherd mix who came to us from CA to find his forever home. The sweet boy is stunning and has all the brains and fun you Aussie fans love about the breed. He’s high energy, enthusiastic, and gorgeous! Definitely a winning combination! Neptune can be a very happy social boy, but he needs a strong leader that can set some healthy boundaries with him. A home with a single person may be best. He seems to attach himself to the mother figure in the home and then guard that person. A strong handler will be able to navigate and redirect that behavior and Neptune is very affectionate and eager to please. He really just wants a job. Neptune can be very social with other dogs but does sometimes take a minute to acclimate to a new dog. He spends his day playing in our play yard with other dogs at the rescue. He enjoys other fun, loving friends that he knows. If you’ve been looking for the perfect adventure, buddy and have leadership skills, Neptune needs he just might be the perfect fit for you. Neptune is house trained, vaccinated, microchipped and neutered. His adoption fee is $500.
