Hi, I’m Dobbie! I am an energetic, cuddly & curious boy, who gets along great with other dogs. I am still learning what a cat is and that they usually don’t want to play with me, but my foster family thinks long term I’ll be a great cat sibling! I am quite excitable so would do best in a home without young kids. I am house & crate trained. I love learning new things and have mastered all the basics like walking on a leash, basic commands (sit, stay, down, come, wait, okay, no) and can even “place. I would love an adopter who can continue learning and growing with me and challenging me to be my best self. Being a young Cattle Dog mix, I will require an active adopter who is experienced with herding or working breeds and will ensure I am getting the mental stimulation & physical exercise I need but also knows when I need some chill time to continue being a happy boy. I would love a fenced in back yard for games of fetch and to chase squirrels, although this is not required.
I am a bit unsure of new situations and places which means I will require a patient adopter who is willing to work on socializing me long term. In my free time I love to PLAY, be outdoors, cuddle, and be as close to my humans and fur siblings as physically possible. I also REALLY love to give kisses. 

I can’t wait to have an adopter all my own who will provide me all the love and the active lifestyle I deserve! If you are interested in meeting Dobbie, apply to adopt at: www.causeforcanines.org Adoption fee: $350. Must be an Ohio resident and 23 or older. Children must be 10 years old or older.
