Paxton

Hi, I’m Paxton! My foster family thinks I may be some type of rough collie mix. I am a very sweet boy, that takes some time to warm up. At first in my foster home I was avoidant because I was scared, but now I give tail wags and would rather be included with everyone. I love food, and am motivated by treats which is also helpful. I will let you pet me, and I’ll even sleep in bed, but I am nervous at first. I get along well with other dogs, but might try to mount some dogs when I’m first getting to know them (this has slowed down since my neuter, and I respond great to correction). I will require a fence because I like to go potty off leash in the yard. If you have the patience for a sweet boy that needs a little time to come out of his shell, then fill out an application for me today.
