More about Enzo

APPLICATION REQUIRED from www.dashdog.org  Adoption Fee $450 - the fee is NON-NEGOTIABLE and is not specific for any dog or puppy; it goes to the expenses of the organization as a whole* OUR APPLICATION IS ON www.dashdog.org and must be completed in order to set up a meeting. Our listed dogs ARE READY IMMEDIATELY; we only meet with families WHO ARE READY TO ADOPT! IF YOU APPLY and if WE APPROVE YOU it means we are assuming when you meet any of our dogs and fall in love you're ready to ADOPT AND HIM OR HER HOME!   ENZO is a VERY smart, affectionate young pup with a big personality and an even bigger heart. Enzo already knows several commands including sit, lie down, and shake. He’s highly food-motivated and eager to learn, which makes training both fun and rewarding. In fact, he’s so clever that he’s even figured out how to open doors with pull-down handles! This sweet boy is very devoted to his people and loves being part of the family. If someone leaves the room, Enzo will often wait patiently by the door or try to follow them. When his people are in different places, he may happily trot back and forth between them to make sure everyone is still together. Enzo’s favorite moments are when the whole family is in the same place. Like all young Aussies Enzo is still a fun, active, playful dog.He loves carrying things around in his mouth—blankets, sleeves, or anything he can grab—and gets especially excited about toys and chew items. Plastic bottles are one of his favorite things to chomp on, and he enjoys interactive playtime that keeps him busy and engaged. Enzo is also quite the foodie! While he enjoys healthy treats like carrots, apples, and even a little yogurt, his absolute favorite reward is cheese. Enzo would do best in a mature home with older children or adults. An active home where he can play, learn, and stay mentally stimulated would be ideal for him. With his intelligence, loyalty, and playful spirit, Enzo is sure to be a wonderful companion a person or couple you have experience with Australian shepherds or other herding breeds. We would REALLY LOVE Enzo to go to a home that had another dog for him to play with. Enzo would get along fine with either a male or a female, but one who is bigger than him, but also has moderate to high activity level and is interested in a playmate and canine companion.

Our philosophy is to rescue highly adoptable dogs, have them live kennel-free in private homes for temperament assessments and individual personalities. We work hard to match EACH dog with the right family - kids or no kids, other dogs male or female and/or cats. With very rare exceptions all dogs over 6 months will be spayed or neutered PRIOR to adoption - dogs under 6 months will include a spay/neuter date AND referral info for lower-cost surgery if the adopter does not choose to use her or his personal vet. OUR VETS WILL NOT PERFORM SPAY NEUTER SURGERIES UNTIL DOG IS 6 MONTHS OLD.
