Chocolate is a shy smooth coated border collie cross about one year old. We've had this guy since he was a 6-week old puppy and he has an interesting rescue story. Be sure to ask us about it. We can not understand why no one ever looks at Chocolate. He is the sweetest, dearest young boy, a year and a half old. Perhaps it is because he is shy and not particularly brightly colored. He has matured in to an exceptionally handsome fellow with beautiful caramel colored points. This guy is gently affectionate and a favorite of us all. He is well behaved, almost through his puppy chewing stage. He is quiet in the house, and can be appropriately active outdoors. He would make a great house dog. He takes a while to warm up to you, but when he does, he calmly and devotely attaches and offers his steady unshowy love. Because he is timid, he is not needy or demanding as some that are more demonstrative. He wants nothing more than to curl up on the bed, the rug and be there while you read nearby or do house chores. He is a wonderful companion and might appeal to the more quiet person with a similar shy personality. He would be happiest with another dog to love on and sleep with, one that will also be affectionate with him. He can keep up with the active ones, but be mellow with the old ones, so he is a perfect big brother. OK with cats but can still occasionally chase them. Needs a calm stable home in order to thrive, one that accepts him for who he is and doesn't require a dog to be an extrovert.
