This rough and tumble boy is Dozer. He is a happy Aussie/Border Collie mix puppy with a zest for life! Though he’s growing up to look like a Chocolate Lab. At four months and 35 pounds, he should be about 50+ pounds when mature. We expect he will fluff out a bit, too, and grow a longer coat.as he reaches the 18 month mark, but he’ll probably always be on the shorter-coated side compared to an purebred Aussie.

Dozer is a typical puppy–klutzy, loveable, and always ready to play! Dozer needs a family who is ready for typical puppy energy and hijinks. Dozer loves it when you run your hands down the carpet making scratching noises.

Dozer is walking much better on a leash now than when he arrived, but leash walking and energetic puppies don’t always go hand in hand so additional work as he grows will be needed. This boy will work for food! Teaching him to sit and some other basic is so easy when you have a treat in your hand. Dozer is currently working on “leave it”, but it is just so hard!

Dozer is well on his way to being potty trained. He has the concept, but sometimes, he can’t hold it all night long, not too unusual for a 4 month old pup. He will have a little excited piddling from time to time, too, but should grow out of that. To adopt Dozer complete an application at New Spirit 4 Aussie Rescue. Reference NS 0649
