Princess - Cattle Dog and Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Lynchburg, Virginia

Princess is a 2 year old little cattle dog mix who is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on all of her vaccines. If you've ever visited our Center for Pets and have seen one of our dog playgroups in action, there's a good chance you've seen Princess in the middle of the fun. She's a playgroup star and will never turn down the chance to spend time with other dogs.

Princess has been waiting in our care for several months without finding the right match. While she loves to play and stay active, shelter life has become increasingly stressful for her. Like many active breeds long stents of time in the shelter have taken its toll on Princess. Princess is looking for an experienced adopter who understands that building trust takes time. We're fairly certain that moving forward Princess having a dog companion will be the catalyst for her confidence!

We know Princess's person is out there. She just needs someone willing to see beyond the shelter environment and give her the chance she's been waiting for. If you're interested in learning more about Princess and think she might be the one for you, stop by our Center for Pets today or email us at adoption@lynchburghumane.org.

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.
