Bernie is a sweet, high-energy boy who needs a family ready to give him lots of love and attention. He is a purebred Australian Shepherd with a temperament typical of the breed. He enjoys playing, going on walks, riding in the car, and solving puzzles. Bernie does experience significant separation anxiety, which can lead to destructive or reactive behaviors. He often follows his owners from room to room and prefers to nap as close to his people as possible. He is crate trained and knows the commands sit, come, and wait. Bernie attempts to play with our cats, but our cats are not interested. He has bitten a few guests in our home, which we believe is related to protective behavior. He currently spends much of the day in a crate due to our full-time work schedules and would do best with a family that can be home more often. Bernie is taking anxiety medication, and we are actively working with him to reduce his separation anxiety.
