From Ewenity Farm Border Collie Haven, Inc.

Meet Washington! Mr. Washington is longingly awaiting his forever-person… His current foster says he would make a great one-person type dog for someone that really values the “guard dog” in him and would cherish a loyal 4-legged friend always watching their back. He needs firm boundaries and leadership like any working breed mix. Some great points about Washington is that he LOVES toys and this is a fun outlet to enjoy with him! He really gets into his play! With some more guidance and practice he could be a good frisbee dog. Washington LIVES to chase and catch just about anything you can throw! He really seeks out being close to you once he knows he can trust you and is such a snuggly boy. His trainer says when he isn’t in a distracted state he’s a great pupil and works hard to earn another treat and seems to be very proud of himself. Washington’s hard point is that he is extremely intense and determined in his pursuit of lizards and cats (or similar small creatures) and is very difficult to refocus once he locks his eyes on one. For this reason he is not to be homed with cats or small dogs and needs a very experienced owner that isn’t a shy handler and is very confident with…

In the rescue's own words, as they published it.
