Collie - Large - Young - Male - Dog - Marty
Description
Marty was found wandering a country road with his brother. He's a beautiful dog, a little shy at first but loves attention. May be a collie mix, we really aren't sure. He is about 7 to 8 months old, weighed 30 pounds when he was neutered. He needs a patient, loving home to help him be his best. If you are interested in applying for this dog, please apply online at http://www.bigfluffydogs.com/online-app.php.FOR PUPPIES: HOMES CONSIDERING PUPPIES MUST BE PREPARED TO:1. Have a flexible schedule to allow for potty training. Puppies can only hold it for one hour per month of age. 2. Crate Train the puppy. It keeps the puppy safe and your furniture free from puppy attack. It is not cruelty, it's safety for the dog.3. Supervise this dog with children. Children and puppies are uninhibited which can be dangerous for both puppy and child. Supervise them!4. Provide Obedience Training. Well mannered puppies are made, not born. You have an obligation to make your puppy a well adjusted dog citizen.5. Socialize your dog. It is critical to keep your dog or puppy well socialized. Expose your puppy to people, new situations, other animals. This helps them adjust to everyday life.6. Understand that you get what you put into the relationship. If you want to have a good dog, you must do your part. Training, time and affection are required. Patience as well. No dog is perfect, and neither are you. You need to be prepared to be patient when they make mistakes. 7. Understand that puppy hood can last for 2 years or more. They will eventually calm down, but they are youngsters. Keep that in mind when deciding on whether you can adopt a young dog or would be better off with a more sedate adult dog. Do not adopt a puppy if you do not have the time.
