About Winston
Winston is a complex but sweet six-year-old Cattle Dog mix who needs an adult-only home. He thrives with a patient, experienced owner and a securely fenced yard would be ideal. Although he has lived with his family since he was a puppy, changes at home require them to rehome him in hopes he can find the best life possible. Winston takes time to warm up to new people and prefers meeting friends outside his home. It’s important for his future owner to respect his space, as he can be reactive to newcomers and other dogs if they come too close. Despite this, Winston displays lovely social skills at doggy daycare or boarding, especially when his owners aren't around. He is house-trained and enjoys hanging out in his crate, although he often prefers it with the door open. He is great on walks but can show some leash reactivity. His ideal adopter will understand his anxieties and work with him patiently. While he takes daily anxiety medication, it has made a positive impact. Winston has many quirks, from rolling in the grass to forming special bonds with his human pals. He enjoys cuddles, a good romp in the backyard, or even a gentle hike. Winston isn't just looking for a home but rather someone who will cherish him for who he is. His current family genuinely hopes to find someone who can provide him with a loving environment so he can flourish. If you're ready to embrace Winston's unique character, your journey together is just a click away!
