About Fido
Fido is a friendly young boy searching for a fresh start and a loving home. This Australian Shepherd and shepherd mix is about 6 months old and weighs around 35 lbs as of mid-July 2026, though he’s still growing. He's currently at a shelter, eager for a foster or forever home in the Washington, DC area. Fido gets along well with other dogs but hasn’t been around cats or kids yet. His ideal home would come with a welcoming resident dog to help him navigate new experiences.
