About Tonka

Tonka is fostered in Port Saint Lucie, FL (Saint Lucie County). We are a foster-based rescue and always looking for foster families! Tonka is a 10-12 month border collie mix of 34 lbs. He will make an awesome dog for a border collie-savvy person or family. He can get a little nippy (very soft nips) when excited, and does try to herd cats and other animals. He will need boundaries set and continued training. He knows sit, down, wait, come and is crate trained. He walks nicely on a leash. He's a heavy chewer so he will need lots of fun different chew toys. He will chase a ball but not yet return it. He'll also sit on the top step of the pool when his foster family swims. He does fine with humans of all ages and all dogs. He is quite the athletic jumper and will need a fenced yard with a 6' or higher fence. Tonka is neutered, up-to-date on vaccines and preventives, microchipped and heartworm negative.
