About Flash

Adoption Fee: $25
Shetland Sheepdog
Age: Senior
Sex: Male

We are moving and are not allowed to have him with us at our new home. He loves our 5 kids who range from 5-13 years old. He plays very well with them. He has never nipped at them. He does bark when they jump on our trampoline or when they are swinging, but he's usually smiling and wagging his tail while doing so. He knows most basic commands. Sit, lay down, bed, out. He doesn't do stay very well though. He loves being brushed, but hates his nails to be trimmed. He will let me do just about anything to groom him though. He is around 11 years old. We got him when he was around 7 Years old and it seemed like he wasn't socialized much as a pup. He cowers behind my skirt whenever something scares him. He chases everything. It took a while to get used to our kittens, and they didn't know what to do with him because he tried to play, but was kinda rough, so its kinda hit and miss on the cat thing. Some days are fine, other days they fight. They seem to play ok when they are outside, but struggle inside. We have been fighting a yeast infection for quite a while now and he's currently doing better than he was. He seems to have some hearing loss, but isn't totally deaf. He has always been pretty scared of a lot of things. Loud sharp noises (like fireworks or lightening) are the worst though. Oh, and if he feels like he's in trouble, even if he isn't.
