FISHWATER
Cattle Dog, Mixed Breed
🇺🇸
Fredericksburg, Virginia
February 19th
male, small, baby
DESCRIPTION
Yes, his name is Fishwater.
No, we don't know how he got it.
Yes, it somehow fits him perfectly.
Fishwater is the biggest of the litter and the natural leader of his little "herd-lings." With his white coat splashed in black spots and those precious ears that stand at full attention, he's always taking inventory of his surroundings.
He's confident without being chaotic. Brave without being reckless. He isn't intimidated by dogs twice (or even three times) his size - but he also appreciates a long, committed nap like it's his full-time job.
Fishwater's highlights:
Big brother instincts
Calm, steady confidence
Toys are always fair game
Champion napper
Deeply devoted to Honey Nut Cheerios
He doesn't need a marathon runner - he needs connection, consistency, and someone who will appreciate his smart, observant nature. Fishwater bonds deeply and will likely grow into a loyal, steady companion who keeps a quiet eye on "his people."
He's got the heart of a protector, the ears of a sentinel, and the soul of a snack enthusiast.
If you're looking for a puppy with personality, presence, and just enough swagger to make you smile every day...
Fishwater is ready to report for duty.

ABOUT: CATTLE DOG DOG BREED
The Cattle Dog is a diligent and robust herding breed known for its agility, intelligence, and hardworking nature. Originating in Australia, Cattle Dogs are highly energetic and require ample exercise and mental stimulation. With their remarkable problem solving skills and unwavering loyalty, they excel in various canine activities and make excellent companions for active owners. Their distinctive blue or red coat, sturdy build, and alert expression reflect their heritage as versatile working dogs.
The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
