Pepper Jack

Pepper Jack is an 18 month old, 55lb black and white Border Collie who is in need of a loving and active family to call his own!

Jack is friendly with other dogs and cats and may be good with kids over 10. Seems likely but would need to be tested. He does guard food a bit, so he should be fed separately until he learns that food is plentiful and always available to him. He is also skinny but we have been putting some weight on him. As for barking, he is not a huge barker. Barks once in a while but listens when asked to stop.

We have been working on some training and he has been extremely receptive! Walking close to me without pulling, he sits on command, desensitizing him with all the city sounds(trains etc), going up and down our six 14' tall stairs, not being afraid of hopping in the car or elevators, and sitting patiently :) Oh and a pretty decent recall. Definitely knows his name well. Looks you right in the eye lovingly.

Jack is super affectionate and has a beautiful personality. Just a gem!

Pepper Jack is fostered in Brooklyn, NYC.
