MEET PATCHES - NEEDS ADOPTER ASAP!
NOTE: All inquiries please email: pets.katrina@gmail.com
This dog is currently in a temporary foster home in the Sac area.
Patches is a cute and bouncy female brindle and white Boxer/Aussie Cattle Dog Mix. She is still a puppy and spayed, housetrained, up to date with shots, good with kids, and good with dogs. She is currently in a temporary foster home but would love to find her forever home ASAP.
Patches' Story...
This little cutie is a high energy girl who is full of enthusiasm and is ready for action. She loves to play tug with her doggy friends. In her foster home, she is learning to not jump up - we're pretty sure no one in her past every really explained to her that she should keep those four bouncy paws on the ground! That's the boxer in her!
Patches was surrendered to a shelter because her people moved. They had her since she was 4 weeks old and got her from a friend in Arkansas. She is 8 months old now, still very much puppy, so she is still learning and is mostly house-trained although she'll need some guidance during a transition to a new home.
Patches has been primarily an indoor dog. She stayed in the crate at night and when no one was home. Her favorite activities were running and playing with other dogs. She lived with five children, ages 1-8 years old. Her owners reported that she would jump on them and wanted to play all the time. They say that she is friendly to other people and dogs. Like many 8 month old puppies, she still likes to chew and dig. She also likes riding in the car and is outgoing and affectionate.
Patches is ready for a home that will give her love, attention, training, and lots of play time!
Here is a short video of Patches when she first arrived at her foster:
