Meet Brody – a delightful 5-year-old, 65-pound neutered male Cattle Dog/Pitbull mix who perfectly blends playful energy with a charming, easygoing nature. Brody is currently enjoying life in a foster home in Houston, Texas, and is eagerly awaiting his forever family. He's a wonderful balance of being active enough for outdoor adventures and mellow enough for cozy days at home. Whether he's enthusiastically chasing a toy or melting into your side with a goofy tongue-out smile, Brody is the epitome of a lovable goofball. He even enjoys dressing up for special occasions, as long as he's doing it with his favorite people.
Ideal Home
Brody has done best with friendly, laid-back female dogs and tends to prefer a more relaxed playmate. Due to his size and love for running, he may be a bit much for smaller or more timid dogs. He would be happy as an only pet, as long as he has space to run and play. A home with a secure backyard is ideal for him to enjoy some off-leash fun. Brody is a gentle sweetheart with people and has done well with children he's met. We recommend a home with older, dog-savvy children (ages 8-10+) who are steady on their feet and understand how to respectfully interact with dogs. Brody would love a buddy to play with, run around the yard, and then settle down with for snuggles. Brody is not a good fit for homes with cats.
Ongoing Health
Brody is neutered.
Training & Support
Brody is a gentleman on leash, walking calmly and staying close. He is fully housebroken and crate trained, doing wonderfully when left unsupervised in his crate. He loves his plush toys and enjoys giving them a little "customization" with his enthusiastic chomps! Brody is smart, food-motivated, and eager to please. He thrives with structure, consistency, and encouragement. While he may still get a little excited around assertive male dogs, with calm guidance and continued positive experiences, he has shown great adaptability. We recommend a home with experience with Cattle Dogs, Pitbulls, or other intelligent working breeds. Brody doesn’t need a super active lifestyle but would love daily walks, light adventure time, and activities like scent work, agility, or basic obedience classes to keep his mind sharp and his bond strong.
