My story

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

A1315162 Firefox is a brown and black, approximately 2-year-old, 35-pound, neutered male, Australian Cattle dog mix. He initially entered our shelter in April 2024 as a stray but has been adopted and returned a few times, never finding quite the right fit. He's had too much energy and they haven't had time for him, her weren't able to meet his exercise and mental stimulation needs. Without the right activities, he became destructive with toys or too mouthy a player with humans.

Back at the shelter, Firefox is very happy to see both his human and canine friends. He participates in daily playgroup. He is a very energetic, very active, highly social dog who really needs a home with a dog playmate who shares his energy and physical play style. While running and hiking are fun for him, he seems to greatly need the companionship of another dog to be his best self!
