Minnow - Cattle Dog Dog for Adoption in Bend, Oregon

Meet Minnow!

At just 3 months old, Minnow is already proving that she has ALL the cattle dog sass, smarts, and energy packed into one adorable little body!

This girl is a busy bee who LOVES exploring, playing with the big dogs, and checking out everything the world has to offer. Shes full of personality and curiosity, but once shes gotten her zoomies out, Minnow actually does a great job settling down around the house. Shell happily wander around, keep tabs on her people, and follow you around like the little shadow she is.

Shes doing fantastic with potty training and is making great progress with crate training. Shes still learning about all the sights, sounds, and experiences that come with being a puppy, but shes taking it all in stride and becoming more confident every day.

Shes going to need a family who understands that cattle dogs come with brains AND batteries—and is ready to give her plenty of exercise, training, enrichment, and adventures as she grows.

When shes not busy being a tiny tornado, shes perfectly happy hanging out with her people and soaking up some love.
