About Hunter

Meet Hunter! At just 2 months old and weighing 9 pounds, this American Heeler/Cattle Dog blend is eager to find a loving family and explore the world around him, including whether your shoelaces are chewable. Hunter was born to a stray mother, but his journey took a positive turn when he entered foster care at 10 days old. Surrounded by love and cuddles, he has grown into a sweet, sociable little guy who adores people. His mama weighs around 40 pounds, but since dad took off early, Hunter's future size remains a mystery. As a young puppy, he will require guidance on all things, from potty training and leash walking to avoiding the temptation of chomping on fingers. Expect frequent potty breaks and playful escapades filled with curiosity. Given his cattle dog heritage, Hunter may become an intelligent companion who loves to learn and stay active. Gentle, positive reinforcement training will be key in channeling his energy and intellect. Patience and consistency are essential as he navigates this adorable puppy stage. Hunter is ready to bring joy, puppy kisses, and a little chaos to a forever home! Ready to help this dirt-born baby flourish? Hunter is accepting applications for a lifetime of love!
