Meet Puppy!
Puppy is a spirited 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 are a testament to her fun-loving and goofy nature, always ready to brighten your day! She's blossomed from her early days into a bundle of love and joy. Puppy has earned a "Basic Obedience" certificate and knows commands like "Place," "Heel," and "Sit" like a pro, showcasing her intelligence and trainability. She thrives on learning new tricks and her eagerness to please makes her a joy to train and bond with. Her playful spirit is infectious, and she's friendly with strangers and her trusted humans alike. Puppy gets along well with her current dog and cat friends, and has even become fast friends with a toddler in her current family.
Ideal Home
Puppy would thrive in an active home with lots of exercise and a fenced yard. Due to her high energy and a few quirks, she is best suited to a home with older children who understand her need for personal space, especially around food.
Ongoing Health
Puppy faces challenges with resource-guarding, particularly around food, and may snap if she feels her food is at risk. She is an incredibly loving dog, but she thrives with a family who can provide the training and understanding to help her manage these tendencies positively.
Training & Support
Puppy has earned a "Basic Obedience" certificate and knows commands like "Place," "Heel," and "Sit." She is eager to please and loves learning new tricks.
