Meet Wilson, your new adventure partner! If you're looking for a dog with a brilliant mind and endless energy, look no further. This handsome Border Collie/Australian Shepherd mix is the quintessential working dog, currently looking for a wide-open space to call his own. He's always ready to move, whether it's a high-speed game of fetch, a long hike, or zoomies in the yard. Wilson is a true gentleman with cats and a "ladies' man" who thrives with female companions. He takes a bit longer to warm up to other males, but he's a fast learner. True to his heritage, he has a strong drive to herd and occasionally tries to organize his canine friends. He responds beautifully to corrections and is currently being fostered with a trainer to polish his social skills and play style.
Ideal Home
Wilson needs a rural or farm setting where he can flourish with room to roam and a quiet environment. He is not a "city dog" or a social butterfly for crowded parks. He requires a savvy handler who understands herding breeds and can continue his training journey, along with a secure perimeter where he can feel safe without the stress of constant foot traffic from strangers.
Ongoing Health
Wilson's adoption fee is $400 plus MN tax, which covers his neuter, vaccinations, microchip, and any additional medical care he may have needed while in our care. Age and breed are our best guess as we often don't know who or what mom and dad are.
Training & Support
Wilson is currently fostered with a professional trainer, working hard on his social etiquette. He is making great strides in learning how to play appropriately and look to his human for guidance.
