Brock a.k.a The Doon

 

Brock is an 8 year old Australian Shepherd with a zest for life.  Adopted by his mom Margaret when he was around 1 year old from Aussie Rescue and Placement Helpline, NW.  Soon after his adoption Brock came down with a somewhat rare disorder call EPI or Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency, and later on he developed Atopic Dermatitis (environmental allergies), both of which is being treated for.   Both are rather expensive to manage, there are no cures.  Lucky for Brock there is a veterinarian in the family.

According to Margaret he enjoys  “swimming, walks, playing “find it”- scavenging for hidden treats in the house, chewing, digging, dissecting stuffies and cardboard boxes, hiking, herding dogs at the park, chasing crows, squirrely hunting, catching flies, rolling in the grass and of course smelly and/or dead things, playing tug, humping golden retrievers, camping, snowshoeing, going to the beach, meeting new people, and basically being where the action is.”
