Story
Meet Catcher— Your Future Adventure Buddy & Snuggle Queen with a Cute Tiny Underbite!
Catcher is a young, vibrant, fun-loving girl who’s equal parts athlete and cuddle bug. She’s the kind of dog who will sprint at top speed after a squirrel... then melt into you for belly rubs five minutes later.
What Catcher likes:
Exercise and affection! She thrives with 1–2 hours of daily activity. Runs, brisk walks, soccer games, frisbee sessions, swimming in lakes, or just zooming (her zommies are legendary!) around the yard — she’s all in. Her "Good Morning" consists of melting into her human and asking for hugs and belly rubs, and she loves to get them throughout the day.
Mental challenges. She’s very smart and loves puzzle toys and scent games (especially hunting for hidden treats!).
Cardboard “projects.” Tearing up boxes is her part-time job, and she takes it seriously.
People + dogs. Extroverted and social, Catcher greets everyone with a wagging tail and leans in for affection. She plays great with dogs of her own size or larger.
Outings. She’s a polite companion at breweries, cafés, and restaurants.
What She’s Good At:
✔ Happily relaxes and sleeps in a crate
✔ Potty trained (never any accidents) and crate trained
✔ Walks nicely with a no-pull harness
✔ Super affectionate
✔ Smart and eager to engage
✔ Knows “sit” and “stop”
✔ Can entertain herself with a toy, a wooden stick, or a cozy bed - making her an amazing work-from-home companion
✔ Catching a ball, frisbee, water waves, flies, flying leaves - and she is a great "catch" herself!
What She’ll Need:
A family that has an active and consistent lifestyle, a fenced yard is a huge plus, and has time for exercise and play, and understands the needs of a young, energetic dog with a high prey drive and high chewing drive. She’s not extremely treat-motivated, but she shines with squeaky toys, enthusiastic praise, and physical affection.
If you are looking for a low-maintenance, low-energy dog or plan to crate her for long hours a day, she is not the gal, but if you’re hoping for a dog who will join you on every adventure, hiking, swimming, running and greet you like her favorite person in the world every day and watch a movie while hugging each other, Catcher is your girl.
