About Puppy
Meet Puppy, a lively nearly four-year-old Australian Cattle Dog and Shepherd mix currently in Amherst, MA. With a fawn brindle coat accented by white and charming spotted paws, she is a spirited companion, always ready to brighten your day. Puppy is not just all looks; she's earned a "Basic Obedience" certificate and excels at commands like "Place," "Heel," and "Sit." Her eagerness to learn makes her a joy to train, and her playful spirit is infectious. Puppy has a friendly nature, getting along well with both her current dog and cat friends, as well as a toddler in her home. However, her energy and some quirks mean she would thrive best in a household with older children who can respect her need for personal space. This delightful girl has a classic blend of playful and steadfast personalities, reminiscent of her breed. While she has a joyful stubbornness typical of Australian Cattle Dogs, she also deals with resource-guarding issues around food, which her new family will need to manage with care and training. Puppy seeks an active lifestyle and a committed family to nurture her confidence. Could you provide Puppy with the loving home she deserves? She's waiting with a wagging tail and lots of cuddles just for you! A free consultation with a canine behaviorist is available to support her transition.
