Nebo German Shepherd Dog & Border Collie Mix Lyndhurst, VA

UPDATE: ADOPTION PENDING!!!!

"Nebo" means "sky" in the Bosnian language - check out those piercing blue light bulbs!

Here is a STUNNING & sweet boy looking for his forever home. Nebo is young mutt with so much potential. Still very much a puppy at 6 months old, he's got nowhere to go but "up," so to speak.

He's very playful with almost all dogs (submissive, too), super affectionate and even seems like he might be good with cats! Nebo is also pretty easy on a leash so far, too. Walking him is like walking with a cloud - he is so light-footed! A typical pup, Nebo is very treat motivated and eager to please. The flip side is that Nebo is a little bit skittish, easily frightened by loud noises; but with a little patience and a lot of love, we believe he will be just fine!

Let's talk about his cat test: Nebo is absolutely terrified of some of our dog-hating, aggro cats and avoids the heck out of them. Introduced to two of our more "chill" cats, Heldreich's Pine & Milkey, he was calmly interested, gently wagging his tail and even nose-booping H Pine. With proper intros, he could likely learn to be comfortable with household cats.

What more can we say? Nebo is a bright young pup who is guaranteed not to last long with his endearing temperament, smarts & beautiful, soft, silky coat. He's got great vibes for families with kids, cats and other dogs! That's the whole package, right?
