Almond Sheltie, Shetland Sheepdog Young Male

Location:

Salt Lake City, UT

Description:

Cashew and Almond are gorgeous puppy mills survivors. They were rescued by Best Friends from a 'Horrible Hundred' puppy mill and brought to Utah. Almond is an adorable, playful, sweet 1 year old male sheltie. Cashew is a shy, reserved, independent and fearful 4 year old female sheltie. Both are about 13 pounds. We don't know their exact relationship to each other, but they get along great. Almond has youth on his side, so he has been able to put most of his early trauma behind him. While he is still scared of new people and things, once he's comfortable he is sweet and playful. You will find him zooming around your yard, playing with other dogs, or snuggled in your lap. Cashew, being older, has had a much harder time adjusting to her new life. She still thinks people and human touch are terrifying and is most content being allowed to explore at her own pace. She is often found nestled in her crate, or palling around with Almond. This special pair will require a dog savvy family, ideally experienced with fearful dogs and positive training techniques. While Almond is well on his way to being a 'normal' dog, Cashew may always remain timid and fearful of humans. Almond loves playing with toys, and carrying his treasures around. He is mastering potty training, and is good in a crate. True to his sheltie personality, he is sensitive and alert. He is still getting used to a leash, but is loving experiencing the world. Cashew's personality is just starting to show, she likes snuggling with her bear toy and being with Almond. She currently isn't able to be touched or petted, but is content to move around when you ask her to. She is housebroken and crate trained and quiet as a mouse.Dogs are not placed on a first-come, first-served basis. We strive to find the perfect home for each animal.
