Many cultures believe ladybugs are a symbol of good luck and new beginnings, and it's a new beginning for me. . . I'm Ladybug. I know the true meaning of new beginnings and I'm loving it! I'm a 1.5-year-old, Australian Cattle Dog mix girl who is 50 pounds of pure joy! Even though my 'before' life was outdoors, I picked up house training like a champ. I'm calm and comfortable in my kennel, after a little early whining/barking. I haven't had the opportunity to learn about the leash yet, but I'm pretty smart, so I assume I'll ace that, too. I'm very obedient and with the right training, I have the potential to become an amazing family member! After being an outside dog, and not having much human interaction, I now crave it! My foster family says they are totally amazed by how well I'm doing. I will need an active family with a 6-foot-privacy fenced yard and knowledge about common cattle dog traits. I haven't met kids yet, but with my size and energy children should be sturdy. I'd love another dog in my forever home. I can learn so much from them and we can keep each other company when our human family needs to be gone. Oh. . . and we can play, play, play!! Just add consistency, love and patience and I will provide the rest. www.rescueonespringfield.com/our-adoption-process/adoption-application/ My adoption fee is $150 and includes my spay/neuter, vaccinations, wellness exam, heartworm test, and microchip!
