I
adopted Joey from the Tucson Humane Society in January, 2000 at the
age of one. He is an Australian Shepherd. He is now approaching twelve
years old and has been my loving, faithful companion - especially since
my husband passed away in 2005. He understands (almost) everything I
say, and wants only to be with me 100 percent of his life.
His only bad habit is barking while in the car. Otherwise, he is a
perfect dog for me, and he does love his car rides, and has his own area
in the back set up just for him. Joey is never destructive or badly
behaved inside the house. Some people think all full-grown shelter dogs
come with issues, but not my Joey, he was already a year old, and was
and is still a great dog. He does not scratch doors or screens, or jump
on people, jump on furniture or sniff crotches. I am proud to have such
a sweet and good dog.
He used to have seizures, but a few years ago my Vet found a new
medication and he has been okay ever since. He is the heart of my home,
and I dread the day he will no longer be with me.
