Cattle Dog and Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption

Gigi is a friendly, social butterfly who lives for being part of the action. If there's something happening, she wants in - this girl has a serious case of FOMO and a heart full of enthusiasm for life. During her week in foster, Gigi met two other dogs and loved to play, showing off her fun, playful personality. She greets everyone like a long-lost friend and is always ready for her next adventure. Gigi walks well on a leash, knows how to use a pet door, and while one week isn't quite enough to declare her fully house trained, she didn't have accidents when taken out regularly. Gigi does have a high prey drive and is very interested in squirrels and cats, so a home that can manage that instinct (and ideally not have cats) will be important. She's a young, energetic pup who shows her love with exuberance - which means she'll benefit from regular walks, plenty of playtime, and continued manners training to learn that jumping on people or using hands as chew toys isn't how we show affection.

If you're looking for a happy, outgoing companion who's ready to be your adventure buddy and best friend, Gigi can't wait to meet you and find her family.
*Gigi slept in a crate at night fine but was very vocal if kenneled during the day. She seemed to do better the yard, but not completely quiet so she may have some separation anxiety. Hopefully with routine and more time it would have gone away."

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.
