About Aquarius

Aquarius is a 5-year-old Catahoula Leopard Dog mix in Grove City, OH. She stands out for her brains, her brawn, and her knack for learning every trick you can think of—sit, lay down, shake, rollover—the essentials, and then some. She’s fully house trained, crate trained (though don't expect her to love the crate), and adores anything that challenges her mind, from training games to puzzle feeders. A secure, tall fenced yard is a non-negotiable for her. She needs the space to run, play, and burn off her high energy before curling beside you for deep, contented snuggles. At 85 pounds, Aquarius is made for those who enjoy an active lifestyle with a loyal sidekick. She’s lived with children before but might knock over small kids in her enthusiasm, so older children are a better fit. While she gets along with some dogs, Aquarius usually prefers being the only dog in the home—she likes being center stage and can be a little guarded about her toys. Anxiety crops up in new situations, but daily medication keeps her balanced, and she’s looking for a patient person who’ll help her confidence keep growing. On the lighter side, she’s such a routine lover she’ll actually deliver her bowl when it’s mealtime—can’t beat that for charm. Spayed and up to date on all vaccinations, Aquarius is ready for a home that sees and values her unique spirit. They are ready to love you; are you ready to apply?
