GIDDEON is a very sweet diamond in the RUFF. Handsome as can be, he's just so timid and wants to be attached ONLY to his significant ONLY person. We've only seen one other Color Headed White sheltie here at our rescue. He's a very pretty boy with just a gorgeous coat for only a two year old. He's house and crate trained, eats well and where ever I'm sitting is where you'll find him. Other than just being a nervous little soul he's just a sweet heart. As the photos show...he CAN relax, ie., taking a nap on the couch, ha. He has shown no interest in the other dogs. As a matter a fact, I've caught his giving a quiet sheltie grin (lip curl) from underneath my chair when the others were up getting their turn of attention from me (so it appears he'd also prefer to NOT SHARE his special person with other dogs either). All it took was a quick verbal correction and that was the end of that naughty behavior though. Can't blame a boy for trying I guess, ha. There have been no disagreements between him and any of the other dogs and he's certainly been here long enough to have the opportunity to do so. He could easily stand to lose a bit of weight (32#s now), otherwise he is healthy and just waiting for someone that is willing to work with a shy natured boy or someone that can find it in their heart to love him just as he is. In his short 2 years of life this is already his 3rd home, so understandably, he's confused and uncertain as to why he keeps getting moved on. Hopefully after a substantial time in a home, he'll gain more confidence and a sense of belonging.
