Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Happy! He was abandoned with his 4 siblings in a parking lot just before Thanksgiving. None of them can tell us about their parents, but we think that one of their folks has quite a bit of Cattle Dog in their genes. Happy is around 9 weeks old (as of December 19) and will be ready to leave for his new home in mid to late January. Happy is sweet, calm, tender hearted, and smart. He is a precious boy :) He and his siblings like to run, play fetch, chase and tug, just like all puppies should. He is up-to-date on all appropriate vaccinations and preventives and will be neutered as soon as he is old enough. Happy gets along with dogs and cats and is used to seeing horses. These pups are never alone as they are constantly surrounded by each other and a pack of grown dogs and cats. Happy has been a good car rider thus far and is working on his house manners. He spends quite a bit of time inside and is quickly learning the rules. He listens very well and, even though he's quite young, he is extremely well behaved. He is a baby, so be prepared to go through full training with him. Even though he is a mix, look into his breed before considering Happy. Cattle Dogs/Heelers are known for their high level of intelligence and herding instinct. To truly be happy and stay out of mischief (usually caused by boredom) they need to regularly be involved in activities which engage both their brains and bodies. Here is a 3 minute video taken December 12 of Happy and his siblings just hanging out. http://youtu.be/XupIVEP9xSE Please, you MUSTpaste following link into your browser BEFORE emailing for further information.
