Cattle Dog and Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption in Madison, Wisconsin

Meet Echo
Echo is a cattle dog mix puppy who was born right here in our care, and she's ready to take the next big step in her journey-finding a forever family of her own.

This sweet girl is everything you'd expect from a young herding breed: intelligent, curious, energetic, and eager to learn. She's grown up surrounded by care and attention, and now she's ready to channel all that puppy potential into becoming someone's loyal companion.

Echo loves to play, explore, and stay busy, and she'll thrive in a home that can keep up with both her active body and sharp mind. She's at the perfect age for training, bonding, and learning all the skills that will help her grow into a confident, well-mannered adult dog.

Because she is a cattle dog mix, Echo would do best with a family familiar with or prepared for the needs of an intelligent working breed-she'll shine with plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and positive reinforcement.

If you're looking for a smart, loyal pup who will grow into a devoted companion, Echo is ready to meet you.

All of our dogs are dewormed, spayed/neutered, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and heartworm tested if they are old enough. If you're interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website at https://www.sftsrescue.org/adoptable-dogs

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.
