My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hey there! I'm DENNIS, a 7 year old dude looking for my forever family. I was sadly found wandering around the countryside by myself. I went up to a house looking for help and thankfully kind humans looked after me.

I've adapted well to my new life in my foster home and I am super attached to my foster family so I know I would get attached to yours. I especially love being with my foster dad and just want to be by his side at all times, whether he's sitting on the couch or doing yard work.

Speaking of yard work, let me tell you how much I love being outside. It is my happy place! Since I love being outdoors so much, I'm looking for a house with a nice high fenced in yard (no condos please). I also love going for walks but I don’t really like interacting wihth non-family members while I am out for a walk. I am very strong and can pull so need a family who can work on that.
I am part cattle dog and that means I enjoy herding. Sometimes that means, I am a little too bossy or rough with kids so I need a home where everyone is over the age of 16. I also don’t want another pet in the home (be it a cat or dog). I am not always that social or friendly with other animals, so interactions have to be done carefully outside the home.
However, with my people, I’m very sweet and playful. I love zoomies in the yard and cuddles on the couch. I'm also a very respectful and clean and am completely housetrained. I haven't had one single accident in my foster home and I'm very proud of that! I also have been a good boy when my foster family has gone out and left me for short periods of time.


My foster family says I have the greatest smile and I will absolutely light up your day! Don’t you want me to light up yours? Apply for me today.
