Brody

Meet Brody – a 5 year-old, 65-pound neutered male Cattle Dog/Pitbull mix with the perfect blend of playful energy and easygoing charm. Brody is that rare, wonderful balance of being active enough to enjoy outdoor adventures and mellow enough to fully embrace a lazy day of Netflix and cuddles. Whether he’s chasing a toy in the backyard or melting into your side with his signature tongue-out smile, Brody is the definition of a lovable goofball. He doesn’t mind getting dressed up for holidays or themed events—he’s happy to strut in his rodeo best or festive costume, just as long as he’s doing it with his people. Brody is a smart, food-motivated, and eager-to-please boy who thrives in a home that offers structure, consistency, and encouragement. He's come so far during his time in foster care and is more than ready to start his next chapter with a family who sees how truly special he is.

Ideal Home

Brody would love a home with a secure backyard for off-leash play. He has done best with friendly, laid-back female dogs and tends to prefer a more relaxed playmate. Because of his size and love for running, he may be a bit much for smaller or more timid dogs, but he’s also fully content being your one-and-only pup, as long as he has space to stretch his legs and get some zoomies out in the yard. We recommend a home with older, dog-savvy kids (8–10+) who are steady on their feet and understand how to respectfully interact with dogs. No cats for Brody, please, as he’s not quite sure how to share space with feline friends.

Ongoing Health

Brody is up-to-date on vaccinations and has been neutered.

Training & Support

Brody is fully housebroken and crate trained, and does wonderfully in his crate when left unsupervised. He loves his plush toys—especially giving their faces a little “customization” with his enthusiastic chomps! His foster mom has put in great work helping him polish his obedience skills, and he’s made huge progress! While he may still get a little excited around assertive male dogs, with calm guidance and continued positive experiences, he’s continued to show how well he can adapt. He would be a great match for someone with experience with Cattle Dogs, Pitbulls, or other intelligent working breeds. He doesn’t need a super active lifestyle, but he would love a couple of daily walks, light adventure time, and maybe a fun activity like scent work, agility, or basic obedience classes to keep his mind sharp and his bond with you strong.
