Hello there, I'm Preston, a 5-year-old male Australian Kelpie with a heart full of love! I'm in search of a special human companion who can provide the home environment that suits me best. I'm a mild-mannered guy suitable for those leading a quiet lifestyle and someone who will be home most of the time. I'll need an experienced owner who knows my breed and can handle my funny quirks. I have some lovely basic skills and I'm very gentle around people. I enjoy meeting people and getting some gentle pats along the way. When I'm staying at the shelter, I love spending time in the office interacting with the staff, sleeping and relaxing. One might say I'm a perfect companion for someone that works from home! I'm currently in foster with another dog and enjoy going on social walks with other calm dogs. I'll still need to find the right fit if I'm going to share my space with another furry friend. I love exploring and sniffing around, so a secure outdoor space would be a dream come true! If you have the knowledge, experience, and a secure backyard, you might be my perfect match! Can't wait to meet you and start our life together.
