My story

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

Breed: Australian Cattle Dog X
DOB: 5/2022
Gender: female
Altered: yes
Coat: medium
Size: medium
Color(s): white/brown/tan
Description:
Hi, I'm Gidget, a very active and very sweet Australian Cattle Dog X in need of a new home as I was found as a stray and no one came to claim me. I'm thankful CARL has taken me in and I know they will help me find my forever home.

I was in a temporary foster home for a couple of weeks with another dog and I loved it. I was a little cautious with new people and other dogs, but I warmed up quickly. I was great with children and I loved to play. I never showed any aggression towards other dogs on leash or around food/toys. I also loved belly rubs and getting lots of love and attention. I loved going on adventures and snuggling in bed. They weren't sure how I'd do with cats, but thought probably best to avoid them.

I did ok in the crate, but would whine sometimes, but not for long.

My breed is known to be highly intelligent and energetic and really happy when on the job. Therefore, training and participation in activities such as obedience, herding, or agility is highly recommended. This can represent a large time commitment on the part of the adopter, but participation together fosters a bond between you and me and it's fun for both of us. Please keep in mind, an intelligent, energetic dog, such as myself, who is not kept occupied will become bored, and a bored, energetic dog with nothing to do will find something to do which can be considered destructive. In my temp foster home I got bored fast and wanted to chew on things. Chew toys and lots of exercise is a must!

If you think you can give me the environment and love I need to thrive in, please fill out an online application to meet me.
