About Dingo

Dingo is bursting with a gentle spirit and curiosity. He walks nicely on a leash, taking his time to explore every new scent along the way. This adult Australian Cattle Dog is a bit shy initially, but he warms up quickly once he feels comfortable in his surroundings. A game of fetch is one of Dingo's favorite pastimes. He happily returns the ball, saving you the trouble of chasing after him. Although he tries to engage with rabbits and squirrels, he would thrive with a playmate who can match his decent energy levels. Dingo is house trained and has never had an accident indoors. He’s fine with being left out of his crate while you're away, showing no signs of destructiveness. He enjoys his crate as a safe space, filled with toys and comfy spots. Dingo loves chewing on toys, with his Kong filled with kibble and peanut butter being a top choice. He knows basic commands like Sit, Stay, and Off, and responds eagerly when called. Dingo relishes belly rubs and is a cuddler at heart, often joining you for some screen time. He has shown no aggression towards anyone and would likely get along great with children; a meet-and-greet is recommended to see the instant chemistry. With his affectionate personality, Dingo is ready to become a cherished family member. He deserves a loving home where he can flourish and share endless joy.
