Meet Goose!
A spirited three-year-old Australian Cattle Dog mix with 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.
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. That said, she's recently started coexisting peacefully with farm cats and chickens at her boarder’s rural property—proof that with the right environment and routine, she can settle into life alongside other animals. Goose is sensitive to certain city-life triggers like scooters, skateboards, and sudden movements and has been reactive when startled by things like people with assistive devices or rolling luggage.
Ongoing Health
Goose is vaccinated, spayed, and microchipped.
Training & Support
Goose knows a wide variety of commands including “sit,” “come,” “leave it,” “touch,” and “place.” She is crate trained and house-trained. Goose is highly sensitive to certain city-life triggers and can be reactive when startled.
