Meet Shadow
Hi! I’m Shadow, an active, confident and friendly boy looking for a home.
My past is something of a mystery. However, it’s suspected that I was abandoned on the streets by my family. Out there in the unknown, I soon found myself injured. Fortunately, a kind person saw me limping and called Soi Dog who sent their rescue officers to get me. With treatment and rest at their hospital, I made a full recovery.
Understandably, I was a little wary of people after arriving at the shelter. After all, humans had really let me down. However, the behaviour team worked closely with me, and I was able to build my confidence and trust and let my true personality shine for all to see!
In keeping with my Collie looks, I’m an active boy who’s always excited to head out of my enclosure for a walk. In the off-lead areas, I run and explore almost non-stop, pausing only for some pets and cuddles. I haven’t really learnt how to play in the traditional way that many dogs play, with tennis balls and such, but I still have a lot of fun. I can even dance – I stand on my hind legs, put my front legs in the air and hop around. How many shelter dogs can do that, hey?!
If you’re looking for a fun and friendly companion, please consider me. I’m ready to step out of the shadow of the shelter and into the light of a home.
