Milksteak (DM) - Australian Shepherd Dog Available for Adoption in Dalworthington Gardens, Texas

Meet Milksteak 🥛✨

AKA Wally, professional cuddle bug and full time lap dog.

Milksteak is a 25 pound standard Australian Shepherd and double merle who was rescued from a breeder that planned to cull him because of his disabilities. Their loss, honestly, because this little guy is pure joy wrapped in fluffy chaos energy.

Wally is deaf, but you’d never know it slows him down. He’s adventurous, playful, ridiculously affectionate, and fully convinced every human he meets was put on earth specifically to love him. He wants to be touching his people at all times if possible. Lap? Perfect.

Couch? Amazing. Bed? Obviously.

One unexpected perk to his deafness? Fireworks, thunderstorms, loud chaos... none of it bothers him. While other dogs are panicking, Wally is usually asleep somewhere upside down without a care in the world.

​​​​​​​He’s crate trained, potty trained, walks nicely on leash, and gets along great with dogs, cats, and kids. He’s food motivated, clever, curious, and always ready for the next adventure or snack opportunity. He's fully vetted and ready for his furever home. He does have an independent little streak mixed in with all that snuggly sweetness, which honestly just adds to his charm.

Milksteak is the kind of dog that makes people fall in love instantly. He’s goofy, resilient, endlessly loving, and proof that “different” never means less.
