Story
Meet Colter! 🐾
Breed: Pointer / Cattle Dog Mix Gender: Male (Neutered) Weight: 62 lbs Health: Up-to-date on vaccines, fully healed from a bad broken leg, and ready for action!
Personality & Vibe
Smart, focused, and full of potential, Colter is a bright guy with a strong drive and a heart of gold. He is the ultimate "working dog" spirit in a handsome 62-pound package. If you’re looking for a partner for outdoor adventures, training sessions, or agility, Colter is raising his paw!
When you engage his mind, Colter absolutely shines. He has fantastic recall, learns remarkably fast, and is heavily motivated by treats—though he remains wonderfully polite and non-reactive around food. He loves having a job to do and takes immense pride in doing it well.
Home Life & Compatibility
Kids: Great with kids! He loves being part of a family dynamic.
House Training: Fully house trained and knows the drill.
Dogs: Dog selective. With proper, slow introductions, he can do well with the right match, but he’s also content being your one-and-only wingman.
Cats: A big NO on felines—cats actually terrify him! A cat-free home is a must.
Understanding Colter's Journey
Colter previously broke his leg and spent time recovering in a foster home. After resting up and getting a clean bill of health, he returned to us full of built-up energy and ready to make up for lost time! Because he spent weeks on restricted activity, he’s still working on fine-tuning his manners and channeling his enthusiasm.
He can display some reactivity in his kennel out of frustration, but he is making tremendous progress every single day. Once he is out of the kennel and working with his human, his focus snaps right to you and his gentle, eager-to-please personality comes through instantly.
The Ideal Match
Colter will thrive with an active individual, couple, or family who understands high-energy or working breeds. He needs an adopter who will give him mental enrichment, consistent routine, and positive reinforcement training. In return, you’ll get an amazingly loyal, intelligent, and affectionate companion who will gladly be your best friend for life.
