Meet Wakely! Wakely is a charming and fluffy purebred Australian Shepherd looking for his forever home. At about two and a half years old and weighing 60 pounds, he is house-trained, crate-trained, and knows his basic obedience commands. While he pulls a bit on the leash, he rides well in the car.
Wakely is a sweet, funny, happy friend to his family and those he knows, but he can be reserved with strangers in his home. His playful side shines through when he “borrows” socks for attention or engages in a spirited game of tug-of-war. A very smart boy, he thrives on mental stimulation and loves to stay right where he can see his people. Wakely enjoys a lot of attention and is always eager to join in on the fun! With a medium energy level, he enjoys playing ball in the yard and cozying up for snuggles. He also loves his crate (though he will nap on the bed just fine!) and would prefer a home that will continue his crate training. He loves training and really thrives when learning new things.
As a breed known for their stubbornness, Wakely may sometimes test boundaries, so an experienced owner who appreciates this trait will be ideal. He can be a bit territorial, preferring to keep a close eye on his home, and he would do best in a home with adults only and no other dogs. He’s also fine with dog-savvy cats. If you’re ready to welcome this delightful guy into your life, he’s sure to bring joy and companionship!
