About Red Wing

Meet Red Wing, a lovable Australian Cattle Dog mix who’s just 2 months old. This little guy has a short coat and is a striking blend of white, cream, and brindle. He’s been through a rough start, living outdoors and dealing with ticks and fleas, but now he’s lucky to be in a safe foster home where he’s receiving the care he needs. Red Wing is not yet house trained and has not been altered, but he is up to date on vaccinations. He needs a loving family that can offer safe outdoor containment; while a fenced yard isn't mandatory, invisible fencing is not acceptable. Due to his young age and puppy energy, Red Wing is an ideal candidate for a patient adopter willing to guide him through training and socialization. Ready to welcome this sweet boy into your home?
