Hi there, I'm Winslow. I'm just a 1-year-old medium-sized boy, and I really want someone to love me. Im playful and full of energy, always ready for a game of tag or a run in the yard, but inside, I feel so alone. Being a herding breed, I have this natural instinct to herd, and it makes me wish I had a farm to roam or a doggie friend to keep me company. It's been a tough journey for me. My previous owner didnt care enough to take off the collar that grew into my neck, and when someone tried to help, I reacted out of fear and nipped their hand. I was terrified in the shelter, overhearing talk of euthanasia if no one came for me. It felt like I had lost all hope, but thankfully, a kind rescue came to save me. Yet, my heart aches because now I find myself in this shelter for six long months, with no one wanting to meet me or give me a chance. Im still a bit nervous about new things; my past has left me shaken. But I'm trying to overcome my fears, and I wish I could show my goofy, playful side more often. I know I can bring smiles and laughter to others. Im smart, too, and I love learning new tricks. I enjoy walks and get along well with other dogs. My rescue mommy says I'm helping test new dogs coming into the rescue, and I do my best because I want to make a connection with someone. All I long for is a loving home where I can learn and grow. If only someone would see me for who I ama loyal friend eager to bond and prove that I can be a wonderful companion. I just wish for a gentle soul to show me how beautiful life with humans can be. All our dogs/cats are vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm tested, on preventions, and spayed/neutered if old enough.
