Australian Shepherd
🇺🇸
Bentonville, Arkansas
April 14th
male, large, adult
DESCRIPTION
Cruz is a lovable 2-year-old with a big heart. He has been doing great in foster care, showing off his crate training, potty training, and polite walking skills. Cruz enjoys his walks and has met a cat without batting an eye, choosing to focus on his people instead.
This friendly guy has been affectionate and social with adults he has met so far. Cruz is especially motivated by food-based enrichment and gets very excited when treats are involved, sometimes popping up with happy jumps to get closer. In low-light settings, Cruz can be a bit unsure and has been known to bump into things, so he is most comfortable when his world is bright and well lit. With his joyful spirit and affectionate nature, Cruz brings smiles wherever he goes.
