About Parker
He's on 6 months right now, we think a Border Collie type X ... a mature dog in the home he can follow and learn from would be ideal, as he gains much-needed confidence from his dog-friends. Leashwork, crate work and basics are all well underway. He's been interested and friendly with kids in the 7+ range when we're had him at events, curious and interested in meeting new dogs and people.
