About Wesley

Adoption Fee: $100
Australian Shepherd
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Male

Wesley is a loving, cuddly, smart, and silly Aussie. He came to us with a lot of anxiety, little/no socialization, and poor coping mechanisms. After lots of training he is much much better. However, we have still had some issues with aggression surrounding resource guarding and interactions with our other dog. It is very painful for us to say good bye but think it is in the best interest of both Wesley and our other dog. We think that Wesley would be a perfect addition to an active household without other dogs. He loves children, however we are not sure that a household with children would be the best fit for him given his anxiety and resource guarding. He is quick to learn new routines and does best with positive reinforcement rather than punishment as this raises his anxiety. He is currently on medication to help his anxiety. We love him very, very much and hope to find a loving home for him. We are happy to answer any and all questions you may have as well as pass on all of our training resources and knowledge to make sure that this is a forever home for Wesley.
