About Rodeo

Rodeo is a charming 6-month-old hound and Australian Cattle Dog mix. Currently weighing 34 pounds and growing, he is mostly house trained and quick to learn commands, showcasing his intelligence. This playful pup thrives on outdoor activities like walks and fetch, but once he's had his fun, he loves a good nap, whether in his crate or cozying up to his foster mom. Although he's curious about meeting new people and dogs, Rodeo can be shy at first but warms up rapidly. He enjoys being close to his favorite person and isn't shy about expressing his need for attention. When he's overtired, he'll fuss but soon dramatically flop down and fall asleep. Rodeo is ideal for an active household that loves to spend time outside. If you think you're the right fit for this energetic and affectionate pup, don't hesitate—apply today!
