My story

　　You're gonna go nutz for him!

　　Hello my fellows! My name is Macadamia and I am a 2 year old, 55 lbs, male neutered Border Collie mix. I was rescued in Mexico and was there at a foster home for a while before I made way to sunny San Diego. I have been a very good boy and have mastered bathroom, crate and leash training. I may get distracted on the leash while waking but re-direction is very easy and positive reinforcement helps. I do have some resource guarding issues that I am working on, so management around young kids is necessary.

　　I am not a tough nut to crack, and just need to exercise and remain mentally and physically stimulated. Brain games, tricks, walks help me a lot. I have high and excited energy, so do watch for that door when people come over! I love to zoom around and wish good morning to all. I am also highly affectionate and can be a velcro dog. I do have some fear of men, but I am learning to trust with lots of redirection and treats! Slow and gentle intros are key. I am good around other playful dogs too. I would prefer older kids to be with, as I am working through resource guarding and trusting men. Dogs and kiddos would require management around food.

　　I pawmise that we will be fun, loving and health nuts together. My silliness and joy will keep you happy! I will thrive in a home with another dogs and we can just play and get our energies out. I would prefer more females than males in my home and older kids. Hope we can be up for patient training together and teach me some fun tricks!
