This baby 😭😭😭 I need them <3Username: iStarz & Everly
Name: Breck
Gender: male
Mate; Arlyn
Background;
Before Breck came to us, he was bounced around from shelter to foster and back to shelter. Even after being adopted, he had been returned to a shelter many times for being too much to handle. He couldn't stand to be left alone and no one could figure out why. He wasn't aggressive or overly hyper, but his anxiety and just general stress was through the roof. Breck didn't take too well to most companion dogs he was paired with. He just wasn't interested in any of them for some reason. That was until of our close friends found Breck in a shelter that they fostered for. They knew he needed a chance and got us in contact. We instantly fell in love with Breck and his eagerness to be loved.
Let's Work;
Soon after we started fostering Breck, we started trying to find him a job that could curb his anxiety. Giving him focus, we decided, would be good savior. We started with basic obedience and he quickly picked up everything that we threw at him. He was so eager to please and took even the biggest challenge in stride. But every night he seemed to regress, hiding himself in a shell. He needed a companion desperately. While he got along with most of the other males, he wasn't interested in them at all. It wasn't until we decided that he might be a good candidate for team herding that we thought Arlyn might be a good fit. She was a quiet dog with a happy personality.
Meeting Arlyn;
Bringing Arlyn and Breck together was nerve-wracking for all the trainers. We desperately wanted Brevk to stay with us, but he needed the confidence only a companion could bring him. Arlyn was just about our last hope. We introduced them slowly, separated in two different runs. Letting them get used to eachother. Arlyn instantly had Breck's attention. They would "talk" to eachother and give kisses through the fence. The flirting was on! Breck began to be eager to see Arlyn every morning. A few days later they got to meet without the fence separating them. They greated eachother as if they hadn't seen eachother in years, but it was like they were never apart. No one would ever knew that they had only first met a few days prior. Soon after they began training together and now they are a perfect working pair.
Personality; Breck is a soft-hearted but stubborn guy. He cares deeply about the ones he loves and is very loyal. Breck is determined to make any and all relationships work, believing that there is always something to fight for when you love someone. He feels deeply for his mate, Arlyn. She is the air in his lungs and he would do anything for her. He is her support and she makes him believe in happiness.
