Logan loves hugs! Logan is a 7.5 year old Border Collie mix that is currently on a diet and hoping to lose about 10 lbs. Although, according to his DNA, Logan is primarily a herder (19% Border Collie, 13% Australian Cattle, 8% Great Pyrenese) and a sporting dog (13% Labrador Retriever), he isn’t defined by those percentages – he doesn’t herd or sport. Mostly, he loves and hugs and smiles.
Raised in household with several young, loud and rambuncous children, Logan loves children and knows how to connect with them on their level. He’s usually not afraid of big noises and he knows a cry needs a cuddle. His old household also had a cat – so Logan is chill with cats too. Logan spent a lot of his life outdoors looking in, so he has no desire to be outside anymore – unless he’s going on walk. He’s housetrained and crate trained, and has gotten comfortable sleeping in the bed through tthe night. Logan has a bit of separation anxiety when left at home alone – he likes to suck on something with a scent (pillow, fleece jacket,etc.). He never destroys the item, he just leaves it soaking wet.
Logan is low energy (espcially or a Border). He enjoys laying around INSIDE the house, sleeping, and following his human everywhere they go. He tried running once and 10 out of 10 would not recommend. Logan is in heaven if he’s got his three favorite things: hugs/cuddles, food/treats, and walks… oh, and a human (really any human). Logan knows the basic commands – sit, lay, stay. And his stay command (not darting out the front door or the car) has come a long way in the last three months. He is not food aggressive and knows to wait until released to start eating.
Logan had heartworms in 2021, but he made a full recovery and even went to live with a new family that had several other dogs. He loved his new family, but they moved and were unable to take him, so he went back to his original family and has been a super healthy boy since then – up to date with all of his vaccinations and preventatives. Logan is looking for a new home now because his old family moved out of the city and couldn’t commit to his care.
Logan is a super chill, super loving and always smiling baby. He’d do well anywhere, but I know he’d love at least one kiddo to love on.
