Evan

Hi, my name is Evan and I am approximately 8 years old and at best guess a Border Collie/Aussie mix. I don't remember much about my earlier days, which is a good thing for me! I was dumped and left on a bridge over a very busy turnpike in Oklahoma. I was there for a few days. Finally, I went with a nice passerby who brought me back to her house. She and her family have been my foster family ever since. I have had a lot of time to heal from my past. I am one lucky dog.

I've been slow to trust people as I'm afraid they are going to leave me again. But, when I do trust them, I am a loyal boy. I am not aggressive but I might hide or shy away. I am good with dogs but I don't need them. I live with a few and we are all independent from each other which works for me. I am much more interested in bonding with my close circle of people. I've gotten better with that loop thing they put around my head when we go outside. I can go for walks but still a bit skittish on leash. I am very happy indoors. I will go outside to do my business and hang out for a few minutes but I guess I spent way too much time out there in my previous life. I know how good it is inside now! I would love my forever home to be on the quieter side as lots of activity and loud noises can make me a little nervous. I sleep well in my crate as it's become my safe place, but I am 8... I probably don't need it.

I am pretty low maintenance when I get comfortable in my space. I promise if you give me lots of love and cuddles, I will give you lots of love back and I'll even sit in your lap! I have done well at the groomer too. A person or small family that would commit to me for the remainder of my years is what I deserve.
