Profile:
Meet DASH, a bright, confident little puppy who truly lives up to his name. He’s an energetic, curious boy with a zest for life and a happy, outgoing nature. Always keen to explore, DASH is usually the first to investigate something new, whether it’s a toy, a scent, or a new person to charm.
DASH is a lovely blend of his parents’ traits. His mum, Xena (Mastiff x Bull Arab), is a gentle, affectionate family dog who is wonderful with children, while his dad — believed to be a neighbouring Cattle Dog — brings intelligence, alertness, and enthusiasm.
Playful and people-oriented, DASH enjoys interaction and activity but is happy to settle after playtime. With guidance, consistency, and plenty of affection, he will grow into a confident, well-rounded companion.
Ideal Home:
DASH is looking for a home with secure fencing to keep him safe, humans who see him as a valued member of the family, and the time and commitment to guide him gently through puppyhood. He will benefit from regular interaction, mental stimulation, and ongoing training to channel his enthusiasm in positive ways. Secure fencing to keep him safe is essential.
Availability:
DASH will be ready for his forever home from 7 January 2026.
