About Turbo

Turbo is a few years into his journey as a Mini Australian Shepherd, just starting to explore life beyond his breeding days. He’s still adjusting and can be easily startled. While Turbo feels safest in his kennel, he’s primarily kennel trained but may bark occasionally and experience short-lived accidents. His new family should be patient and ready to help him understand that accidents are part of the learning process. Right now, Turbo is fearful of people and won't seek attention from strangers, so a secure setup with a fenced backyard is essential. He struggles on a leash and needs gentle, positive training to feel confident walking. Interestingly, he finds comfort with animals and does well with cats. He genuinely flourishes around calm, confident dogs that can help him gain confidence. With time and a kind approach, he can form deep bonds, having already grown attached to his foster mom, often climbing into her lap for quiet snuggles. Turbo requires a loving home that provides patience, structure, and kindness. With the right support, he can become a deeply devoted companion.
