Ralphie , a 2-yr old  mix of Border Collie, Australian Shepherd and Corgi etc.  He’s about 25-30 lbs, lean but ALL muscle.  He’s STRONG, good natured, does not like to be w/out his human and gets along well with my2 dogs.  He’s not fast, doesn’t seem to be a “runner “, doesn’t herd, takes direction and needs leash training and how to be a pup.  He’s pretty chill overall but does have a big bark.  He doesn’t like the crate but does fine with a puppy pen when he needs to be confined.  He goes potty outside with the pack and no incident s in the house.  He’ll make a great companion or family dog.  He’s an agreeable guy.
