My story

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

The one with that golden paw!



Hi guys! My name is Midas, and everything I touch, becomes my family! I am a 2 year old, 42 lb male Australian Cattledog mix. I have been fixed and working hard on my good manners. I am bathroom and crate trained and working on leash walking skills.



So what’s that on my nose you ask? The very sign of human cruelty. I had a so-called owner who took a machete to my face and neck. Pris from Los Adoptables took me in very kindly and then TAP stepped in to bring me to my most amazing foster home. Pris cared for me and found out I was fully blind but with medical intervention, I have regained vision. I do have cataracts and partial retinal detachment. I will have a follow up with an eye specialist in about 3 months wherever my new family wants to take me and they can decide if I need a surgery at that point.



Now that’s out of the way, let’s focus on my golden qualities. Do you like class clowns? I am that! I keep everyone in splits with my high energy fun loving nature and goofy antics. Being a cattledog, I love work and play and tricks and treats! From lounging on the couch watching tv to going to the park and playing for what seems like forever I am the boy that can do it all. I am very dog friendly and having a playful dog playmate will keep me so happy! I have met kids but not for long enough. But I sure am adaptable!



My foster mama is astounded that in spite of seeing unexplainable cruelty, I have so much love in my heart! What can I say, I am the golden child afterall! I would love a home with a yard where I can play and hang out with my doggo sibling. I would love mental and physical enrichment and will make a great workout companion. And when you need a TV date? Just call me and we will be snuggle buddies. If you want that loving touch in your life, you better meet me! My adoption fee is $250 and that includes spaying/neutering, shots, and microchip.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We prioritize local San Diego applicants. We do not provide transport of dogs to other states, and don't allow the dogs to fly in the cargo of the plane.
Our adoption process from start to finish, involves 3 standard forms, and 2 situational.
All potential applicants must be capable of providing their adopted pet with routine and emergency veterinary care (yearly health checks, keeping vaccinations current, heartworm/flea preventatives, and immediate care in the event the animal is sick or injured). They are required to license their pet, and keep an identification tag on their pet at all times.
All applicants must agree to a home check, and provide us with a veterinary reference, or personal references if you're a first-time pet owner. Our home checks are not to invade the privacy of the applicants, we do this to ensure the pet is going into a safe home. We do not discriminate against non-homeowners, or those living in apartments, condos, or otherwise.
Our adoption fees vary from $150-1000.
Applicants must agree in writing that if for any reason they are unable to keep or care for their pet, the pet will be surrendered back to our rescue and not re-homed, turned over to a shelter, pound, rescue, new owner, sold, etc.
