Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi, my name is Rowdy and I am looking for the perfect home. Even though I've had a run of bad luck most of my life, I am a loving and friendly boy. I am a 3-4 year old male Australian Cattle Dog and very
playful. I am medium sized about 35-40 lbs. My intelligence level is high and my manners are improving every day. My story is that my owner died and then his family brought me to a shelter where the only way a dog gets out is through a rescue group taking them home. I'm not used to so much human attention so I get excited and stand up on my hind legs to show interest in people. I like other dogs and cats don't bother me. The most important thing that I need is love from my owner and some room to run and play. When I'm outside with my foster sister (50 lb dog) I sometimes show my herding instincts in a playful manner. I also like chasing the ball, but I don't understand why my foster dad wants me to keep bringing it back to him. Hmm, go figure. Luckily I have adjusted to indoor living (since I was previously chained up outside) and do very well in and outside of my crate. I can also lounge around with the best of them. Once you start to pet me you won't be able to stop, literally, because I'll keep hounding you for attention. ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED. CONTACT US AT 615-661-5333 or ccrnewengland@gmail.com
