“My name is Pendleton, and I like warm hugs!”
Pendleton is a 4-year-old, fun-sized (40 lb.) Australian cattle dog: the perfect blend of post-puppy energy and adult dog “chill”. This affectionate and loyal boy is looking for a forever home that will provide him with stability and love, and in return he will adore you and everyone that enters your home.
Pendleton is athletic and loves to play fetch and chase, but don’t let his liveliness fool you; he is completely content to cuddle with his people in between spurts of play.
He is an extremely affectionate boy towards his humans and has not met a person he does not like – to include children. However, Pendleton likes to jump and give hugs, and so he would likely do best in a home without very small children. We do not know much about Pendleton’s history prior to his arrival at PNWCDR, but he is very fearful of other dogs (and apparently cats) and is dog-reactive, especially when he is on a leash. Therefore, he needs a home without other animals.
Pendleton would make a great outdoor adventure buddy and is well-suited for the Pacific Northwest lifestyle (hiking, running, etc.). He is extremely smart and is responding well to training, and he might enjoy agility or other work-oriented activities.
Pendleton will be seeing a behavioralist about coping strategies and potentially medication to help him confront his fear of other dogs. The ideal adopter would have the patience required for him to continue his decompression and transition to a new home and be willing to continue his training to reduce reactivity to scary stimuli.
He is up to date on his age-appropriate core vaccinations, neutered, house-trained, microchipped, and doing great learning his common commands. Pendleton knows how to “sit”, go to his “bed”, “wait”, and he comes to his name. He will even sit and wait before being released to eat his breakfast and dinner!
Pendleton is currently being fostered in Spokane, WA and the adoption fee is $390. If you are interested in meeting Pendleton, please fill out an adoption form on our website: pdwcdr.org/adopt. Please note we do not do DNA testing on our foster dogs; the breed description is our best guess based on appearance.
Pendleton is: altered, up to date with routine shots, house trained, might not be suitable for a home with small children.
