Rooster is a handsome one-year-old cattle dog mix with a sweet soul and a playful spirit. This lovable boy enjoys the simple things in life — relaxing beside you while you watch TV, soaking up attention from his people, and stretching his legs outside where he can run and explore. Like many cattle dogs, Rooster has an active side and would thrive with a family that enjoys an adventurous companion and can give him plenty of exercise and enrichment. Rooster is settling into foster care nicely and continues to show what a sweetheart he is. Because he's still adjusting and learning to trust new people and environments, his foster recommends a patient adopter who will give him time to acclimate and feel secure in his new home. A home with a secure 6-foot fence is strongly recommended, and using a yard leash during the transition period will help set him up for success as he bonds with his forever family. If there's another dog in the home, Rooster would benefit from a slow, thoughtful introduction. Meet-and-greets are encouraged to help ensure everyone is a good fit. With patience, structure, and love, Rooster has all the makings of an incredibly loyal and devoted companion. If you're looking for a sweet, active pup who's equally happy cuddling on the couch and adventuring outdoors, Rooster may just be your perfect match!
