Hi! My name is Sid and I am looking at a forever home. I was picked up as a stray by Animal Control and taken to a really scary place called a shelter where I was in danger of landing on the euthanization list. A small local rescue pulled me just in time ,and then a volunteer with them contacted BCAA to see if they could help me and they said yes ... yeah! While I don't have the longer hair of an Australian Shepherd, I do have the markings and beautiful blue eyes that you will find in a lot of aussies as my coat is what folks refer to as a red merle. I am about 18mos old and weigh a little under 28lbs and won't get any bigger (unless I can con you out of lots of treats which I love!). Things I love: belly rubs, treats, being with you, running and playing with my dog friends. I have gotten along wth all of the other dogs I have met and haven't bothered those things called cats. I have done really well in my crate without any accidents as long as I get out regularly, no barking or or tearing up of any bedding although I would really prefer to be out and about with you. I'm good on leash although I may pull some in my excitement of being out and going on adventures. If you would like to meet me, please fill out an application which can be found at www.bcaaofnj.org.
