Meet Puppy!
Puppy is an energetic and loving almost four-year-old Australian Cattle Dog and Shepherd mix with a heart as big as her dreams of finding a forever family. Her fawn brindle coat with white accents and spotted paws make her a sight to behold, and her playful, goofy nature is sure to brighten any day! Puppy has come a long way and has blossomed into a bundle of joy. She's earned a "Basic Obedience" certificate and knows commands like "Place," "Heel," and "Sit" like a pro, showcasing her intelligence and trainability. She loves learning new tricks and her eagerness to please makes her a joy to train. Puppy is friendly with everyone, including strangers, and gets along well with her current dog and cat friends. She also has a special bond with children and has become fast friends with a toddler.
Ideal Home
Puppy would thrive in an active home that can provide plenty of exercise and a fenced yard. She is best suited for a home with older children who understand her need for personal space, especially around food.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions are mentioned, but Puppy is described as having a "stubbornness" common in her breeds, requiring a confident and understanding caregiver.
Training & Support
Puppy is an excellent student and has already earned a "Basic Obedience" certificate. She does exhibit resource-guarding tendencies, particularly around food, and may snap if she feels her food is at risk. Positive training and understanding are key to helping her manage these behaviors. A canine behaviorist is available for a free consultation to help her new family.
