| CHOCO |
 |
Choco is a wonderful dog and a great companion! We adopted him and have loved being a part of his life. He is about 8 years old and is in good condition. He is currently eating a home cooked diet through JustFoodForDogs and has been for the past 3.5 years. Choco is good with other dogs and indoor cats who are used to being around dogs. He really just loves being around his people and going on adventures anywhere you go! He has always loved the beach and water and going on hikes and walks. He has been around our 1 year old daughter, however it would not be recommended he go to a home with young children. If an individual is old enough to pet, play fetch, and love on him that is an ideal fit! Choco is obsessed with tennis balls and anything that you can throw for a game of fetch! He is very well trained indoors and can sleep either in a crate or freely on a dog bed. He has been trained to not go onto beds or couches but he sure would love to be invited up to snuggle!
Original Bio:
Meet Choco. Choco is a 5-6 year old male red & White smooth coated Border Collie. He has had a lot to process since being dumped in a shelter by his owners. It is unknown as to why Choco was relinquished to the shelter, as it appears that he was well taken care of by his previous owners. At first, he was a bit unsure and nervous, but that has all subsided with some TLC. Choco is has a nice temperament and is quite affectionate.
Choco is well mannered, as he walks well on a leash, knows his basic commands of sit, stay, and lay down. He also will jump right in a crate for transport. Choco appears to like traveling in a car and would make a good travel companion. Choco is socialized with other dogs, and has not had any issues with any of the males in our foster program. Choco has medium energy level, so he is not over the top bursting with energy as with some BCs. He will require some consistent daily exercise, and of course, with all BCs, mental stimulation as well. He has not been evaluated with cats or small children. Choco is the type of dog will do anything you ask of him. If you want to go on a long hike or just lounge around on the couch to snuggle and watch a move, he would make a perfect loyal canine companion. Choco is looking to forge a close bond with his new person.
