About Polly

Meet Polly, a 38lb Cattle Dog Retriever mix with the heart of a puppy and the sweetest personality. She's spayed, vaccinated, and fully up to date on all of her preventatives, so she’s ready to head straight into her forever home. Polly has a gentle, go-with-the-flow nature and loves being part of whatever her people are doing. Polly is a forever puppy at heart! She absolutely loves toys, enjoys playing with other dogs, and has a bouncy, happy energy when it’s time for fun. If another dog wants to play, Polly is always happy to join in. She’s also been around kids aged 6 and up and has done well with them. While Polly enjoys playtime, she’s actually a pretty low-energy girl overall. She’s just as happy to relax and cuddle as she is to toss around a toy. She’s affectionate, snuggly, and loves being close to her people. She can be a little shy when meeting new people, but she warms up quickly once she realizes she’s safe. Polly has great house manners; she is fully house-trained and crate-trained for up to six hours. She does well in the car and has no issues with resource guarding or food aggression. We are taking our best guess and recommendations from our veterinarian on age, breed, and size when fully grown. We rarely know a dog's exact age nor are we able to tell the true or full breed mix of dogs as our information is limited most of the time.

Ideal Home

Polly would thrive in just about any home, whether it’s a family, a couple, or someone looking for a loyal companion.

Ongoing Health

Polly is spayed, vaccinated, and fully up to date on all of her preventatives.

Training & Support

Polly is working on her leash manners and may pull sometimes, but she’s easy to manage while she continues learning. Like many young dogs, Polly is still figuring out some of the rules of home life and will need a patient adopter who is willing to keep guiding her. Because she can sometimes get into things if left loose, she should be crated when unsupervised. With consistency and routine, she’ll continue to blossom.
