About Tofu
Meet Tofu! This thoughtful seven-year-old Australian Cattle Dog, currently in Richmond, VA, boasts a handsome blue mottled coat and a deep, loyal heart. Weighing in at 49 pounds, Tofu forms strong, meaningful bonds with those he trusts. His journey has made him sensitive and intelligent, thriving in calm and predictable environments. Once you’re in his inner circle, Tofu loves being close to his favorite humans, whether stretching out on the couch, joining you in the garden, or heading out for exciting outdoor adventures. True to his breed, Tofu is exceptionally smart and appreciates having a job to do. He’s completed formal training and knows commands like sit, down, place, roll, heel, come, shake, and high five. His need for structure helps him feel calm and at ease. Tofu brings joy with his chew toys, tossing them in the air and creating his own games. He’s an excellent hiking, walking, and running companion who loves exploring the outdoors alongside his people. Tofu seeks a calm, adult-only home with experienced pet parents familiar with anxious or reactive dogs. He’s not comfortable around children and should be in a household without kids, as their unpredictability has led to increased anxiety and lunging incidents. Caution around unfamiliar people is also part of his nature, preferring slow introductions. He gives clear warning signs when he feels uncomfortable but often settles in well when his space needs are respected. His charming flexibility shines through as he can conquer trails or nap at your feet while you work. Tofu generally gets along well with other dogs, can share a home with a confident cat, rides nicely in the car, and loves being included in everyday life!
