Australian Shepherd / Border Collie / Mixed (long coat) : : Male (neutered) : : Adult : : Medium Won't you think about adopting me?
J.R. needs a caretaker or foster! Won't you consider helping him get a new start?
J.R. is not a typical Bluebonnet breed of dog. In fact, we’re not even sure which breed/s he might be, though his looks remind us of a cross between a Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever, and an Aussie. With those perky ears, maybe he has some Border Collie or Sheltie in his DNA? J.R. was abandoned by his owner and at risk of being killed for no reason other than that. No one else was stepping up to help him, so we drove to Oklahoma to bring him to safety with us. J.R. Is a middle-aged dog, around 6 years old when we joined us. He has a little bit of arthritis, but he doesn't let that slow him down. We give him Meloxicam (an NSAID) daily, and J.R. doesn't seem to slow down or be in any pain. We have no clue what his owner's circumstances might have been that resulted in them abandoning J.R. at the vet's office, but our guess is that this dog was loved and well cared for his whole life. J.R. has good manners in the house, and is happy to go into his crate when you are leaving the house, or at night. He seems to feel secure in the crate, but seems to be trustworthy if left to roam free in the house. We think he would be content as an only dog, or with another dog with a calm temperament.
