About Mickey

Mickey is an adorable 11 week male Border Collie mix, about 12 pounds, and this guy is very smart, very snuggly, and very much a people pleaser. He is already working SO hard to make his foster mom happy, which translates to amazing motivation for training. He is used to kids, dogs and cats. House and crate training have begun, but being a baby, expect it to continue. Mickey is available May 9th. Please do the application at https://www.homewardboundrescue.com/application/dog
