My story

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

Requirements: Cannot be home alone for longer than 3 hours

Stubbie is a lively, 3-month-old cattle dog mix who is ready to steal your heart with his boundless energy and playful spirit! This little guy is as smart as a whip and loves engaging with people — whether it’s playing fetch, learning new tricks, or just being the center of attention, he’s all in. His curiosity and bravery make him a quick learner, though he’s still perfecting his potty training (but don’t worry, he’s making great progress!).

Stubbie gets along well with the adult foster dog in his home; they just love playing with one another. Stubbie, however, is definitely an attention hog and even now will push the other dogs out of the way to keep all the attention on himself! He’s a confident boy with a big personality and isn’t afraid to show it!

While he’s full of enthusiasm, Stubbie is still a puppy at heart. He needs a little help with his potty training, and since he’s still learning how to navigate the world, he can’t be left home alone for more than 3 hours just yet.

If you’re looking for a playful, smart, and brave pup who thrives on human attention and is ready to shower you with love, Stubbie could be your perfect match!
