About Miles

🐾 Meet Miles! 🐾 Miles is a young Australian Cattle Dog mix, around 1.5 years old, who has a story that will tug at your heart. Rescued from a quiet road in East Texas, he patiently waited for his family to return, weathering storms and showing incredible hope. Luckily, a wonderful couple found him and reached out for help. Now, he’s ready for a new beginning! Miles is energetic, playful, and athletic—his foster family says he excels at parkour! He has already picked up a few commands like “sit” and is doggy door trained. Miles loves being around other dogs and would thrive with a companion who can keep up with his spirited nature. While he's curious about cats, his behavior around them remains a question mark. This friendly guy is eager to please and has the kind of joyous spirit that can light up any home!
