Hi, my name is Kane, I am a heeler/border collie mix born approximately 4/25/20. Aren't I adorable, that's what my foster mom says. I absolutely love everyone I meet, including dogs of all sizes and ages, cats and kitties. Foster mom says I do everything with complete exuberance. I love doing zoomies in the fenced yard, and playing fetch with squeaky balls with the resident dogs. I even bring the ball back half the time. I do have a rather strong prey drive, but foster mom tries to distract me from that.
I love to rough and tumble with the resident 10 month old pup who has been teaching me how to be a dog. We wrestle and share toys. But I also am great at settling down for a rest in my crate. I just love being able to see my humans and other doggies whenever possible. I go right to sleep in my crate at night. I sleep all night and don't make a peep until it is time to get up. Yes, I can hold doing my business all night long. Foster mom says I'm such a big boy already!
I'm doing a great job on potty training and go outside almost all the time. Sometimes when I'm playing I do have an accident as I'm having too much fun and just can't hold it. I'm also still working on walking on a leash. I prefer to just run and play in the yard. I haven't been in a car much but do okay on short rides.
I haven't met any young kids yet but hope to soon. And lucky for me my foster mom is home all the time so I don't have to be left all alone. But I really like my crate so would probably do fine if I had to be left alone.
I'm looking for a furever home of my very own. I would do best with a fenced yard and another resident doggie to play with as I have a ton of energy. But as long as I get lots of activity I can adapt to anything. I'm just that happy of a little guy. Could you be that special family? I hope so and I'd love to meet you.
