Choosing a dog breed...

That's great!!! We have a beautiful Australian Shepherd and I ahve a picture of him in my MyLot profile. The sad thing is that he is not working well in our family. We love him but we live in a busy suburban neighborhood with lots of kids playing in adjacent fenced yards and he barks at them disturbing the peace and runs up and down the fence line trying to herd them. And even in our own home we have five children so it's a busy and loud environment and it makes him nervous to the point that he has snapped his teeth at our almost 3 yr old son. We're looking for a new home for him and hoping that he'll end up with someone like you would can appreciate this breed. We love dogs and we love this dog too but it just isn't the right fit for our family or for the dog. We're going to get a goldendoodle instead with the GREAT hope and desire that it will work better for the dog and for our family and neighborhood.
