WINSTON - COURTESY LISTING Border Collie & Great Pyrenees Mix Richmond, VA

Winston is a sweet Border Collie/Pyrenees mix looking for his forever home. He is 18 months old, 80 lbs, house-trained, crate trained, and walks well on a leash. He is extremely dog friendly and absolutely loves to play fetch around the yard and rolling around with his lab brother.
Winston loves to cuddle and, despite his size, is a total lap dog. He has been cat tested and although he shows no aggression, I would not recommend him for a home with cats as he loves to chase anything that runs from him. Winston is extremely loyal to family and, like a typical Pyrenees, will alert if anyone comes close to the property.
Because zoomies are his favorite thing in the world, he requires a large, fenced yard or a farm. He would do best in a quieter home with not many visitors, as he does have fear based aggression toward strangers. He is on medication that helps his anxiety, but this will likely be a lifelong trait. He is muzzle trained and extremely smart, so continuing work with a behaviorist will help teach both him and his new owner some coping mechanisms to manage his aggression. Once he trusts you, he is yours forever!

Winston would do better in a home with children 12 & older. Winston is located in ATHENS GA. For more information about Winston you can email bolten.diane@gmail.com or fill out an application at www.arcbcr.org
