About Marshall ~ 6yr Old Cattle Dog (On Trial 31/07/20)
Meet Marshall, super spunky and handsome 6 year old Red Cattle dog. This absolutely gorgeous boy is on the look out for his new forever home. He is attentive, friendly and super energetic and active.
After spending a few weeks with his foster family, he is ready to find the family of his dreams. Ideally, Marshall is looking for a family who understands the breed and has previous experience. Being a working breed, they require a heightened level of care and diligence when it comes to exercise and discipline. Being a very playful and bouncy boy, we do not recommend Marshall to families with children under 12yrs old.
Marshall is dreaming of long walks in the bush or on a beach with his new family, and is careful to not go too far from your side.
Marshall requires a consistent training approach to establish boundaries and rules within his new environment. He does have the tendency to jump when excited, and be a tad stubborn as known to the breed. He understands sit, stay and loves being occupied with new tricks. Marshall loves baths and has experience with warm hydro baths with his current foster family.
Marshall currently sleeps inside, with an open door for him to access outside at night. He will need to be allowed inside with his family when they are home and to sleep inside. Marshall will need house training as he currently has constant ourside access so an open door at night or further education would benefit him immensely.
Unfortunately due to his age and jumpiness, he is not suitable to live with small children as he could easily knock them over when jumping. Marshall will require a large yard for him to stay active and happy. He will also require tall 6ft secure fencing. Unfortunately no rural fencing or mesh will be suitable for Marshall.
Marshall is looking for a home where he is treated as part of the family and being very young still, someone home part time would be ideal for him as he settles into the new routine and way of life. Marshall would benefit greatly from a family with previous experience with Cattle dogs, and those who understand their little quirks and amazing personality traits. This happy go lucky boy is super excited to meet his new family.
