Meet Puppy!
This spirited almost four-year-old Australian Cattle Dog and Shepherd mix is a bundle of energy and love, dreaming of finding her forever family. With her beautiful fawn brindle coat, white accents, and spotted paws that dance with excitement, Puppy is the epitome of a fun-loving, goofy companion ready to brighten your day! She has come a long way and has blossomed into a joy to be around. Puppy has earned a "Basic Obedience" certificate and knows commands like "Place," "Heel," and "Sit" like a pro, showcasing her intelligence and trainability. She thrives on learning new tricks and her eagerness to please makes her a joy to train and bond with. Her playful spirit is infectious, and she's friendly with both strangers and her trusted humans. Puppy gets along well with her current dog and cat friends, proving she's a lovely companion who enjoys company. She has also formed a special bond with a toddler in her current family.
Ideal Home
Puppy is best suited to a home with older children who understand her need for personal space, especially around food. Her ideal family would also provide an active lifestyle with lots of exercise, a fenced yard, and a commitment to help her grow in confidence and trust.
Ongoing Health
Puppy faces challenges with resource-guarding, particularly around food. She may snap if she feels her food is at risk. She is an incredibly loving dog with much to give, but she thrives with a family who can provide the training and understanding to help her manage these tendencies positively.
Training & Support
Puppy has a "Basic Obedience" certificate and knows commands like "Place," "Heel," and "Sit." She is eager to please and loves learning new tricks. While she has a strong personality common in her breed mix, she needs a confident, understanding caregiver to help her manage her food-guarding tendencies. A canine behaviorist is available for a free consultation to ensure a great start with her new family.
