Ukko is a handsome pup, born on 08/19/24. He is a Collie mix and so far has a silly soft medium coat that is low shed (Collies can take anywhere from 6-15 months to grow their permanent coat)! He has cute tan socks and little eyebrow beans, making his adorable face even more irresistible. This darling sweetheart is equal parts playful, silly character, and snuggle butt. He loves playing with toys, humans, his in-home pup friends (pit mix and mini schnauzer) and plays well with others.  He is very smart and quickly took to bell training for going potty outside. It does take attention and schedule, but he is doing great! He is motivated to learn by praise and treats as reward, which is so fun to work with. He is extremely food motivated! He is not at all food aggressive, but he does need to practice a bit more on manners (as he will be curious if others want to share the crumbs of their treats a he will take correction, but this could be an issue with other alpha or food-aggressive dogs).  He would do best with a fenced yard to run and also would be a great companion to another dog. He likes to play, chase, run, and pounce, and will shadow another dog as well. 
He will need some work on crate training. Currently, someone is home most of the time except short periods where he is out of the kennel with our dogs. He is more comfortable out of a kennel and doesn’t like to be by himself much. He is a great in bed sleeper overnight and will jump down or notify you if or when he needs to go out in an emergency!
