Meet Hassie! This sweet girl is all about balance – she'll happily join you for any adventure you have planned, but she's also the first one to curl up on the couch with you afterward. At just 2 years old and 41lbs, Hassie embodies all the best qualities of a cattle dog: smart, loyal, and always eager to be with her people. But here's a fun twist – she's more of a professional cuddle buddy than a workaholic! Hassie's story is one of resilience; she was facing a tough situation at a North Texas shelter before a rescue gave her the second chance she so richly deserves. She's already crate and potty trained, and she's always up for accompanying you on hikes, road trips, patio lunches, or any other outing. Once the fun is done, she's perfectly content to spend the rest of the day relaxing by your side.
Ideal Home
Hassie has a natural herding instinct and can get a bit overzealous trying to "organize" fast-moving children. For this reason, she would be happiest in a home with older children or adults who understand and appreciate the unique traits of her breed. She's not looking for a perfect family, just the right one! Her only other firm request is a cat-free home, as cats are a definite "no" for Hassie.
Ongoing Health
No specific health concerns were mentioned in her listing.
Training & Support
Hassie is house-trained and crate-trained. She may need guidance with her herding instincts around young children, but her adopter should be prepared to appreciate and manage these breed-specific quirks.
