Story
Meet Bates, a little puppy with a big personality who will still be a very manageable size when full grown. If you’ve been waiting for a charming small- to medium-sized pup, Bates may be your guy.
Bates’ breed results showed that he is 42 percent Australian Cattle dog as well as small amounts of 19 other breeds. Pug was the second highest at 13 percent, and he had small percentages of many other small breeds including dachshund, chihuahua, beagle, rat terrier and cocker spaniel. Bates’ parents were both around 30 lbs, so we think he’ll be 30-something lbs when full grown.
Bates and his brother Wilder are the sweetest and most fun little boys who are attached at the hip. If they’re not following their foster mom everywhere, then they’re following each other. They love jostling over toys, and then collecting them all in their bed so they can take a nap with them. They love to snuggle with their toys, each other and their humans. They’re very friendly and affectionate with humans and other dogs.
Bates loves treats and is very smart. Born May 19th, he’s almost fully potty trained and sleeps quietly in his crate at night at less than three months old. He is always looking to his foster mom for directions on what’s next. He’s very eager to please!
If you’re looking for a good-natured puppy who will grow up and still be a very manageable size, please apply for sweet little Bates.
