About Conan - 63845
Meet Conan: Your Future Adventure Partner!
Conan is a charming gentleman seeking a dog-savvy owner who can provide him with the exercise and stimulation he needs to thrive. Unfortunately, he came to us because his previous owner couldn’t meet his energetic requirements, which led to some destructive behaviors. With a little love and guidance, Conan can be the perfect companion!
What Conan Needs:
Experienced Owner: Conan is looking for someone who understands the needs of an intelligent breed and can provide the proper care and attention.
Mental & Physical Stimulation: He thrives on activity and would benefit from group classes and dog sports to keep him engaged.
Refinement of Skills: While Conan is housetrained, he needs continued work on his leash skills and socialization with other dogs on lead.
Family Compatibility:
Dog-Friendly: Conan has lived with a female dog before and may do well with a well-matched female in his new home.
Kids Welcome: He’s lived with teenagers and would be suited for a family with children over 12.
Cat Caution: Due to his herding instincts, he’s not recommended for homes with cats.
Health & Well-Being:
Conan is currently prescribed fluoxetine for anxiety, which we hope to wean off in the future. With the right environment and care, he can flourish.
Conan doesn’t want to just be a pet—he wants to be your partner in life and adventure! If you’re an active family familiar with dogs and ready to embrace all the joy and fun he has to offer, come meet Conan today!
Medical notes
Conan is prescribed fluoxetine for generalised anxiety. We are hopeful this can be weaned off later down the track when he is settled into a home environment, but may be ongoing medication.
