Echo Q.T. is a border collie-pointer mix with a shiny black and white coat that sheds moderately.

Echo Q.T. is an adorable, loyal, and very energetic dog. He is also very loving and silly! Echo gets along very well with other dogs. He already knows these commands: Sit, Stay, Lie down, and is currently working on Come and Drop it. He has never had an accident in the house and knows how to do his business efficiently. Echo loves keeping you company, keeping watch over the house, and playing with toys. He is learning quickly how not to jump on people (so we are saying no to small children and we don't know about older ones yet) and how not to pull when leash walking. Echo is curious, so when leaving the house, he should be in a crate or a puppy-proof space (or else he may nose his way into the trash can or chew on a shoe!). He is looking for a loving family who wants to continue to train him and take him on long walks every day or who has a fenced-in yard for running. Echo would love to meet you!
