Meet Goose!
This spirited three-year-old Australian Cattle Dog mix is a delightful blend of speckled charm, boundless energy, and sun-soaked silliness. Goose is 55 pounds of brains, goof, and love! She’s incredibly affectionate, curious, and energetic, thriving when she has space to roam, explore, and play. Her happiest moments happen in open areas with other dogs, whether she’s at doggy daycare, on group hikes, or galloping across her favorite off-leash dog park. She has a floppy, cuddly side too, especially in the evenings, when she transforms into a snugglebug ready to curl up beside you! Goose has been through formal training and knows a wide variety of commands. She has great recall and is eager to please, especially if treats are involved. Goose is crate trained, house-trained, vaccinated, spayed, and microchipped. She’ll come with her crate, cozy bed, favorite stuffies, and enrichment toys—all the comforts of home, ready to go!
Ideal Home
Goose would flourish in a rural or countryside home with a large, securely fenced yard, another friendly dog or two, and a guardian who understands the needs of sensitive, reactive pups. Goose is good with older kids, but due to her tendency to get jumpy and mouthy when excited, a home without young children is best. She has a high prey drive and tends to chase cats, squirrels, and birds, but she has recently started coexisting peacefully with farm cats and chickens at her boarder’s rural property.
Ongoing Health
Goose is vaccinated, spayed, and microchipped.
Training & Support
Goose is highly sensitive to certain city-life triggers like scooters, skateboards, and sudden movements. She has been reactive when startled by things like people with assistive devices or rolling luggage. While she is eager to please and knows many commands, she needs a calmer, more predictable environment.
