Learn more about the Shetland Sheepdog Sheltie.
Polo is a one year old neutered sable male. He is 29 pounds of energy and agility. One of the happiest little dogs I have ever met, he is always eager to make new friends of any species. He is gentle with his food and grooming, and has a very easy to care for coat. He is fully housebroken, loves to go for walks, rides in the car and loves to cuddle in bed- his or yours!
Polo's athletic potential is extraordinary. He can jump, climb, catch and is very sensitive to attention and reprimand. Polo would excel in agility or flyball type competition as long as he had the proper training.
Polo's ideal home would have lots of room for running, lots of puppy chew toys, another high energy doggie housemate, and an older child or adult who could spend a lot of time with him and his ball. He would also be happy to spend short amounts of time on his bed under someone's desk in a home office. He would not do well left at home all day while the family is at work or school. Excercise is key to Polo's well being!
The first step in our adoption process is to go to our website at www.pueblocolliesheltie.org and read the adoption information section. If we sound like your kind of people, then please proceed to the online application. The more information you are willing to share with us, the better we can help to guide the process to find your next best friend. We will acknowledge receipt of your application and stay in touch with you as we get to know who you are and what dog would slide into your arms and never want to leave. Sounds pretty good, right? It takes a bit of time but it is very satisfying to make the “right match.” Thanks for dropping by. Polo sends his love. Please begin the process for adoption by reading our Adoption Policies and, if we sound like the right group for you, fill out our online Adoption Application. From there, our receipt of your completed application will be confirmed by email. You then will receive a follow-up phone call if we feel you are a good potential applicant for the dog. Lots of good conversation with the foster family, a reference from your veterinarian, and a home visit round out the screening process. We take dog adoption very seriously. Please put a lot of thought into why you want to adopt a dog, and help us make a good match for your family. We appreciate your taking the time to visit with us. We will look forward to hearing from you as well. Other Pictures of Polo (click to see larger version):
