- Age: 2 years old - Breed: Australian Cattle Dog Mix - Gender: Male - Weight: 32lbs - Kid Friendly: Yes - Dog Friendly: Yes - Cat Friendly: Can cat test if needed. Meet Buster! Buster is a quiet, shy, and reserved boy who is learning that the world doesn’t have to be so scary. He was once fearful, but little by little, he is opening his heart and learning to trust both people and other dogs. Once Buster trusts you, he becomes incredibly loyal and wants to stay right by your side. But trust takes time, patience, and a gentle presence — and Buster is so worth it. He is very food motivated and enjoys a good bully stick to chew on. He would do well in a home with another friendly dog who can help show him the ropes. He gets especially bubbly and happy when another dog is goofy and playful with him. Buster is learning his basic commands and how to walk on a leash. He is kennel trained and keeps a tidy kennel like a good boy. Because Buster is still building confidence, he would do best in a calmer home with older, respectful kids who understand how to be gentle and give him space when he needs it. Buster is looking for someone who will give him the time, love, and patience he needs to continue blossoming. Once he feels safe, he will give you his whole heart. Buster is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped. He is also on heartworm and flea preventative.
