About Cookie

Meet Cookie! Cookie is a 45-pound female Australian Cattle Dog mix, full of charm and personality. Living in a foster home in Pembroke, MA, she embodies a great balance of affectionate and playful. When she's not napping on her back like she owns the couch, she's running around or enjoying belly rubs from her people. Cookie thrives on a consistent routine, which keeps her content. She’s friendly with other dogs and respects their signals when playtime is over. Cookie has experience living with children, specifically ages 10, 13, and 15. However, her playful nature means she would do best with dog-savvy kids aged 12 and older who can follow directions clearly. At home, she’s quiet, house trained, and crate trained, making her a pleasant companion. While she’s not destructive, she may investigate unattended items but can be easily redirected. Cookie walks nicely on a leash, though she can get a bit jumpy when excited. The good news is her foster family is actively working on her training. All dogs in foster care are spayed or neutered, up to date on vaccinations, microchipped, and on preventatives. Ready to meet a lovable new friend? Apply today!
