About Levi

Levi is a striking Australian Shepherd with a heart as big as his energy. He craves affection but balances it with a clear streak of independence. Levi sometimes gets protective when leashed, so he needs confident, experienced handlers who set clear boundaries. His classic herding drive makes him want to round up little ones on the move, so a mostly adult household suits him best—ideally with open rural space where he can stretch out and do what he was bred for. Levi needs both love and room to recharge, and he's as smart as a whip, quick to pick up new tricks. It can take him a bit of time to warm up to some men, but once trust is built he’s loyal and sweet. Levi is fully housebroken and can’t help but jump for joy when he sees someone he cares about—plus, his wiggle when he walks is pretty memorable. Born on February 22, he’s a Pisces: intuitive, driven, sometimes a little stubborn, and always ready to work with the right human. Give him structure, patience, and space, and Levi will give you plenty to smile about. Your new best friend is just one click away.
