About Cosmo
Meet Cosmo, an energetic and affectionate 11-month-old Kelpie with a heart full of love and a boundless zest for life. Cosmo's youthful exuberance shines through in everything he does, as he eagerly explores the world around him and delights in meeting new friends wherever he goes.
Like many of his breed, Cosmo is bursting with energy and rarely likes to stay still for long. His enthusiasm knows no bounds, and he's always ready to shower anyone he meets with kisses and affection. With some dedicated training and guidance, Cosmo has the potential to channel his exuberance into more acceptable behaviors, making him an ideal companion for an owner who is committed to fulfilling his physical and mental needs.
Despite his initial hesitation when meeting new dogs, Cosmo quickly warms up and revels in the joy of playful interaction. He thrives in the company of other canine companions and enjoys nothing more than engaging in spirited games and adventures with his furry friends.
Cosmo's ideal home would provide him with ample opportunities for exercise and mental stimulation, as well as secure 6-foot fencing to ensure his safety and prevent any further escapades. Whether in a spacious backyard or on sprawling acreage, Cosmo is happiest when he has room to roam and fulfill his natural instincts.
While Cosmo may experience some separation anxiety when left alone, his loving nature and affectionate disposition make him a devoted and loyal companion who will thrive in a home where he receives plenty of love and attention. If you're ready to embark on a lifetime of adventures with a spirited and lovable canine companion, Cosmo is waiting to steal your heart and become your faithful friend.
