Cattle Dog and Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption

Meet Skye!

Skye is a 3 month old, 15 lb Cattle dog mix from California. He is super smart, playful and rambunctious

He has adjusted very well to his foster home, and will be very excited when he is allowed to get outside and sniff the world. He loves to play tug, get treats out of the kong, and snooze

He is doing very well understanding, Sit, wait and Off (when he jumps at the side of the pen). Pee pad training is going very well!

He has not been leash trained yet, as he is still just a bit too young to go outside, but should take to it very quickly as he has with all other training

Skye has done a great job in crate training, he sleeps through the night and is okay with being crated during the day. He may cry a little bit when he first goes in, but if he has a kong to search for treats it is easy breezy.

Skye will do well in an active home with or without other dogs. He has not met any kids yet, but would likely need to be in a home with older kids that will help set boundaries with him.



Vaccinated for age appropriate vaccinations, microchipped, and neutered. Tested for vector-borne illnesses. Current on flea, tick, and heart worm prevention.

It is important to fill out an application as soon as possible for consideration, and we require a complete application for you to meet an animal. We are currently unable to respond to general email inquiries as an all-volunteer run rescue. If the dog is on our website, they are still available.

Waggytail Rescue CANNOT guarantee the exact age of any adoptable dog, or final size of any of our adoptable puppies. We rely on the information provided to us by veterinarians, shelters, owner surrenders and other circumstances bringing the dog into our rescue.
