About Dave

Meet Dave! This 13-year-old Cattle Dog mix came to us from a local county shelter. He’s a sweet, easygoing guy who truly enjoys the quieter moments in life. Although he can be a bit shy and aloof initially, he opens up quickly and loves to just hang out with you. Dave walks well on a leash and is well-mannered. He’s a smart cookie, thriving in his foster home, fully trained, happy, and ready to enjoy many good naps ahead. While his days of running and adventuring may be behind him, this senior boy has so much love left to give. We promised him that the rest of his life would be the best of his life.
