Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hello! I am one of six heeler pups (5 boys and 1 girl) that were rescued from Alabama after the unexpected litter from a family's "purebred" Australian Cattle Dog. No one is sure what other breeds we are, other than cute! We were born on December 7th, 2018, so we are staying with our littermates at Found Chicago Boarding and Training Center getting some fun exposure to people, other dogs, and working on our drive development with toys so our new owners will be able to exercise us when we grow up!
My name is Tito and I am the smallest of the bunch. I have adorable stubby legs like a Corgi and I have the personality of a big dog! Once I am comfortable in a new setting, I get right to work finding all the toys, picking them up, and parading around the room like the proud little man I am! I can be a bit shy with new people at first, but bond quickly and fiercely with a handler. I like other dogs and being bossy to my siblings. They don't always take me as seriously as I want them to, though!
I have the highest toy drive of the litter and will grab and hold onto toys with little effort. I would do great at dog sports, like agility, flyball, and other outdoor activities. I will tug fairly well and follow the lure well for my age. If you are looking for a sport dog, email brittney@caninesandcompany.org for more video of my training.
If you are considering adopting me or any of my siblings, it is preferred that my new family have experience and knowledge of herding breeds like Australian Cattle Dogs. We are not the breed for everyone, as we need consistent exercise and challenge as we grow into adults. Please ensure you are ready for the time and effort a puppy like us will need.
With our adoption fee, you can attend a Found Chicago Boarding and Training course for FREE. Email brittney@caninesandcompany.org with any questions or concerns you have about me or any of my siblings.
