Banks is fostered in Ottumwa, Iowa.
Say hello to this handsome and INCREDIBLY sweet boy named Banks. Banks is a male, standard aussie, weighing about 40 lbs and is estimated around 5 years old. Banks is a SWEET boy and would love nothing more than a home with plenty of love and another outgoing dog friend.
Banks' first few years were spent with approximately 60 other dogs on a property. When the man was getting evicted, he gave away all the dogs to random people that arrived to pick one out. Thankfully, Banks was given to a responsible person that allowed us to take him into rescue. His coat was in rough shape with matting and had to be shaved. His coat has returned nicely and he looks REMARKABLE. Banks goes to doggie daycare and plays well with many other dogs. Banks will chill after a fair amount of play, chew on antlers or bones. Banks is being fostered with many other dogs and does wonderfully. Banks has great house manners; is crate trained and house trained.
While Banks is a little timid and shy, he is SOOO happy and has learned SO MUCH in foster care. He does seek out pets from his foster home and even gives a few kisses. He also sleeps in the bed with other dogs and does VERY well being left out in the house. Banks will do best with another outgoing, social dog in the home to take cues from. Banks does require a physically fenced yard. Banks is even good with cats. Little kids may scare Banks, so no children under 10 years of age.
Banks is neutered, microchipped, up-to-date on all vaccines (including Lyme) and is receiving monthly preventatives for fleas, ticks and heartworms. Proof of heartworm preventatives for all past and current pets is required to adopt from us.

NOTE: All of our dogs live in foster homes with volunteers so we need an approved application on file to set up a meet with a dog you might have an interest in. Please visit our website for more information on our adoption process, our adoption fees and a link to our adoption application. We pride ourselves on matches that work for both the dog and your family. MASR is here for your support, advice and safety net for our dogs for the remainder of their lives. www.MidwestAustralianShepherdRescue.org
