Hart is a 5-month-old Border Collie/Great Pyrenees mix with a sweet face, a good brain, and puppy charm that makes people forget they were not technically looking for a puppy. He is friendly, social, smart, and an all-around excellent young dog. Hart likes people, enjoys other dogs, and is doing a very nice job at puppyhood. He is still a baby, so he will need the usual puppy basics: structure, training, patience, supervision, and a family willing to help him grow into the wonderful adult dog he is clearly on track to become. Hart is a great puppy and anyone would be exceptionally fortunate to have him.
Ideal Home
Hart needs a fenced yard where he can run, play, explore, and burn off his puppy energy safely. He will do best with a family that enjoys a bright, engaged dog and understands that smart puppies are always learning, including the things no one officially meant to teach them.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions are mentioned.
Training & Support
Because Hart is a puppy, adopters must be prepared for:
- Flexible schedules for potty training. Puppies can only hold it for one hour per month of age.
- Crate training until the puppy is at least one year old to prevent chewing on inappropriate things when you can't supervise.
- Socialization. The more positive and varying experiences as a puppy the better, both in and out of your home.
- Puppy behavior and life stages are equivalent to a human toddler. It takes at least a full year to have a calmer, well-adjusted dog. Patience is required.
- Adopters must be prepared to put the time and effort into training a dog.
