Hoover

Australian Cattle Dog

Male, Puppy
Santa Cruz, CA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
This is Hoover, male, also almost 7mths old. Fully vaccinated 1st full rounds of puppy shots Sept 19th and also born May 13th as his sister Daisy, they are litter mates. He however will be much larger in size! Probably around 70+lbs full grown. Loves to herd and chase everything and me. He is very strong willed, protective, clumsy, goofy personality, soft soul, clingy, loves to snuggle and give many kisses. Hasn't had a lot of out in the world exposure nor people and other dog socializing, but is getting knowledge and better with it everyday. He's a loyal guard dog who could benefit hugely in working on a farm, or agility training with consistent mental cognitive activities. Loves to nap and goof play with his human too. I believe he'd be great with other working dogs to follow in their lead and has already done great with friendly calmer dogs too after some time of warming up to them. Great on walks, but nervous with loud noises. He will be a great dog under the right handler.

Story
This is Daisy, she's the female runt. Almost 7mths old, born May 13th, fully vaccinated 1st full rounds of puppy shots on Sept 19th. Easily trainable, very smart, super goofy, loving yet spicy high busy energy. Recall great in a home base comfortable environment, can sit, sit pretty, wait (short period) and loves to chase and play with toys and stuffed animals. Getting better at potty training, still working on alerting me when need to go out to potty. However, good at using potty pads indoors over rugs. She is very playful and good with friendly calmer dogs after some time to warm up around them in a home base environment. Friendly to calm natured kids. In public around people and loud noises she is shy and timid, submits to being touched and say hello when being held. Getting better on leash walks and learning to release on pulling with a soft prong collar. When out in public my truck is her safe place. However, she will sniff, pee and calm down on walks when surrounding is calm.

Story
HI - I'M PACO! I am a sweet 1-year-old Australian Cattle Dog mix in need of a forever home! I was rescued from the streets of Ensenada, Mexico, by a compassionate Canadian couple who then tried to find me a home. Eventually I was placed in a rescue and am doing great! Now, I spend my days running around, playing with my doggy pals, and then taking a much needed nap! I weigh only 40 lbs and am a happy, fun-loving boy. I am an affectionate sweetheart and love nothing more than to snuggle. I'm also fully housebroken and great with cats! Personality-wise, I'm quite mellow but I do get excited when I'm showered with love and attention. I can't wait to become someone's best friend! Please email for an application.

Story
Meet Motley, the mixed breed. We suspect Motley is a mix of breeds but have him listed as a cattle dog mix. Motley arrived to the Shelter with his, seemingly, brother Saxon as strays. We do not know about their lives before the Shelter. Although they arrived together, we are looking for separate adoptive homes for them. Staff have observed that Motley walks nicely on leash and is attentive. He has met Maya, a female German Shepherd, and enjoyed playing with her. A dog friend in the home may be a match, especially if they’d want to play with Motley. We’d recommend any resident dogs meet at the Shelter prior to adoption. We do not have a history of Motley with children or cats. The Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter Foundation is now offering “Pawsitivity Bucks” with every dog adoption. This $200 training voucher is a way for newly adopted canines and their guardians to connect with local positive reinforcement based behavior consultants and get their relationship started off on the right paw!Please note: Our Santa Cruz location’s Shelter hours are 11-6pm, 7 days a week! Although clients can walk through and see any animals in their kennels during open hours, we end “meet and greets” (aka meeting an animal out of the kennel) at 4:30pm every day. If you’d like to meet an animal out of the kennel, please arrive before 4:00pm to allow for time to discuss individual animals and meet them.
