Needing to Rehome Sweet Aussie Baby

Colorado Springs CO

Description

Please do not flag! This is NOT a scam, I swear! It is with the saddest heart that I must rehome my dear Xaiver (Zay-Veer), due to absolutely no fault of his own. I have come to discover that my older dog gets along along with absolutely anyone EXCEPT young puppies like Xaiver, or dogs that are consistently in your face 24/7 (like a puppy) and I do not want my older dog to develop any bad habits, aggression, or also potentially badly injure and traumatize little Xaiver. I am hoping to find him a home that loves him as much as I do. He will be 5 months soon, birthday is 11/26/2020. As a puppy, he can be timid and curious, but extremely loyal and loving. He is fine with my older dog, he just wants to herd and play all of the time and it annoys the older dog, so a friend that doesn't mind playtime or puppy time would be great, if not, someone who can devote a good amount of time to him. He has been introduced to my pet rats, and I'm not so sure how he is with cats but he is still young and impressionable. He is ALMOST potty trained, but with all puppies you must be diligent. He will wait for you to take him outside, but again, he is a baby and can only hold his bladder for so long. I take him out four times a day, or whenever I go outside to smoke, and he has had only two accidents in the house so far. He is crate trained and will not potty in it so at night, he is crated as he does have accidents at this time, and sleeps quietly and peacefully in his crate until you let him out. He has the potential to be an AMAZING dog. He is wicked smart, as most herding breeds are. If you want to change his name, it'll take him about a week, with consistency, to remember it. He has been introduced to a clicker, and an e-collar on vibration. I'm not 100% sure what his breed is but it's safe to say he's got Aussie in him, so expect for him to grow around the size of a standard Aussie- if not, a bit smaller, maybe. He is not neutered, as I prefer to neuter my dogs at a minimum of two years to ensure their full development, and I have a copy of his vaccine history on hand. He is microchipped but it is not under my own name, it's under the name of his previous owner. I am asking a $/500 rehoming fee to ensure that he goes to someone serious about loving him, and to recuperate my own losses as well. I am so torn as I love him so much in just the short amount of time that I've had him. He will come with the rest of his food, his favorite training treats, his gear like leash, bowls, collars, and harness, the toys that haven't been destroyed yet, and his cage. I will be very selective with who he goes to, as I am fully aware there's a ton of sketchy people on this website. Located in Colorado Springs. Please text me with information about yourself, why you'd like him, your family, blah blah blah, all that good stuff. He currently lives in an apartment with me so I'm not concerned if you have a yard or not so long as you can make sure he gets his gains in, or else you're gonna end up with a very bored and very destructive dog. 💪 Do NOT call! I promise I will NOT pick up. E-mail is fine, too, but I will see your text faster.
