About Doc

Doc is a playful male cattle dog mix, around 7 months old and weighing in at about 40 lbs. His vibrant red and chestnut coat is short and lovely, perfect for those who appreciate a mix of beauty and energy. Having spent three months in animal control, he thrives in doggie play groups and enjoys the company of staff, but he’s ready to find a forever home where he can flourish. Although Doc is sweet, he might need a little patience to adjust to family life after being in a shelter environment for so long. He does well with other dogs and is looking for a loving family to help him settle in and grow. He will be neutered before adoption and is up to date on vaccinations.
