Fly

Meet Fly! This handsome 8-year-old Australian Shepherd mix weighs about 30–32 pounds and is the definition of an easygoing companion. He’s chill, affectionate, and happiest when he’s near his people.

Fly is fully house-trained, has excellent manners, sleeps quietly through the night in his crate, and patiently waits for you to wake up. He’s also a fantastic leash walker and loves walks, car rides, and a good game of fetch. His energy level is low to moderate, so one good walk and/or some playtime each day is plenty.

Fly warms up quickly to people and has been wonderful with kids of all ages. He is partially deaf but responds well to physical cues. He is not reactive to other dogs, but he can become nervous if another dog is overly interested in playing with him or acts territorial toward him. In those situations, Fly may bark until he can get some space. He doesn’t lunge or try to fight—he simply wants the other dog to back off.
