Griffin wants to be your new BFF! Griffin is an Aussie and is about 2 years old. He is ready for his new forever home!Here is what his foster mom, Katherine, has to say about him: Griffin is extremely easy to train. He took to clicker training immediately. We are working on: - Muzzle training - needed for medical appointments - walking on a 6 ft lead without pulling - No problem brushing him, looking at his teeth or general grooming. Allowed nail trimming with treats and going slow - He is a quick learner - He easily crates at night and during the day in the office (where he naps) and he easily crates in the car - He does like a routine - He easily stays behind a gate when needed (we have gates and crates everywhere) - He can be trusted to have the run of the house and has not had any accidents. - When left alone for a few hours he just curled up and went to sleep - He is very playful! Loves toys!! - He loves, loves, loves being outdoors and loves burrowing in the deep snow. He loves hiking. - He is quite curious and athletic; he could do great in Nosework, Agility, Parkour, Tricks, maybe Flyball and likely Disc. He also loves a puddle so possibly even Dock Diving. - He is very food motivated and not picky - He is very sweet - He is learning about boundaries and taking cues from the resident pups. He does have the hard Aussie type play style - He is a little shy at first and prefers meeting on his level - He is "mouthy" like a puppy when he gets excited or wants to play, though not aggressive in any way. Griffin would do well in an active home. He would be a great dog to take camping and hiking! A home with no children would be best. He will need ongoing training and would do well to be in a group class so he can learn more impulse control around other dogs. He is a very aloof dog which is part of what makes him sweet and goofy.
