Smooks is a five-year-old neutered male Australian Shepherd/Border Collie mix with striking coloring and a steady, intent gaze. He has a gentle nature and tends to be calm and attentive, showing his affectionate side to those he trusts. Smooks gets along with other dogs, though he does best with proper introductions. He walks well on a leash and enjoys spending time outdoors. Because he's independent and loves his outside time, a leash is a must in any unfenced space. At home, he needs a yard secured with a six-foot fence to keep him safe. Smooks is house trained and appreciates a steady routine. You'll find a good companion in this thoughtful, calm dog.
