About John
John is a lively 12-week-old puppy, weighing in at about 10 lbs. This charming mixed breed, a combination of Terrier and Border Collie, is anticipated to grow to around 35 lbs as an adult. He is already neutered and has up-to-date vaccinations. While he is working on his potty training—usually getting the hang of things by 12 weeks—John brings plenty of puppy energy that needs to be channeled through structured exercise and play. Expect to provide him with 90 minutes of activity daily, plus additional potty breaks and mental stimulation. John is social with other dogs and enjoys the company of cats. However, supervision is essential around children due to his playful nature, which can lead to unintentional nips during rambunctious play. He can thrive in an adult-only home or with children aged 8 and up. As an energetic puppy, John would benefit from an adopter who has experience with young dogs and is committed to consistent training. Starting early with a positive reinforcement approach will help him grow into a well-mannered dog. Ready to take on the rewarding challenge of raising a puppy with abundant potential?
