MEET BEETLE! Personality: A Gentle Soul with a Playful Spark Beetle is a handsome, 3-year-old, 52-pound Australian Cattle Dog mix with a striking blue merle and black coat and a sweet personality that grows more endearing with each outing. Beetle will nuzzle your hand, lean against your legs, and happily soak up pets and scratches behind his ears. Sometimes he even tucks his head into your hands as if to say, “Don't stop now!” His playful side is emerging, too. During a recent outing, Beetle suddenly burst into a happy little frolic, ran over for a nuzzle, dashed off again, and offered a playful bow. He even rolled partly onto his side for some extra attention—a delightful glimpse of the fun-loving companion he's becoming. Beetle is a pleasure to walk. He leashes up easily, walks without pulling, and stays calm around other dogs. He enjoys sniffing and exploring, and has greeted dogs at the fence with friendly nose touches. If you're looking for an easygoing walking buddy with a tender heart and a budding playful streak, come meet Beetle!
