About Johnny

Meet Johnny! This charming shepherd/collie mix is around 5 years old and is a sweet, intelligent companion who’s overflowing with love. He’s fantastic with children and will fit right into a family atmosphere. However, he does not get along with dogs, so it's best if he’s the only pet in the home for now. Johnny is currently undergoing heartworm treatment but handles it like a champion, ready to embark on adventures with a loving family once he's cleared. While he hasn’t interacted with cats much, he did once ignore one instead of chasing, so there may be potential there. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who’s ready for a life filled with affection, Johnny is your guy! What are you waiting for? Apply today!
