About Bryn
Meet Bryn,
Bryn is one of eleven beautiful Cattle Dog cross puppies looking for homes. Born on 19 February 2026, he's ready to join his new home now.
Bryn is a playful pup and will play the I am cute card as well with his paw. He is a solid pup and is thriving well in foster care. Bryn is finding humans still a little daunting, but he does enjoy a cuddle and affection from his foster Mum. Bryn is currently sharing his home with his brother Ari and 5 other smitten dogs belonging to his foster Mum and Dad. Bryn is currently sleeping in a crate at night and has only been waking up once to toilet, showing his eagerness to learn already. Bryn has also had some time with cats, being a young pup, it is still early days but he is currently showing very little interest.
His mum is a Blue Cattle Dog. Dad is a mixed breed, likely including English Staffy and Blue Cattle Dog, possibly with some Border Collie influence. Dad is an average-sized dog, no bigger than mum, giving a good indication of Ari’s likely adult size.
With this mix of breeds, Bryn combines intelligence, loyalty and affection — a pup who will thrive with guidance and become a devoted member of the family.
🏡 Ideal home
✓ Secure, good fencing is essential
✓ A home that loves working or active breeds
✓ Someone who can commit to training and consistency
✓ Another friendly dog would be a bonus
✓ A home where he can be part of daily life
Bryn will be adopted through ARK’s deferred desexing program, with his adoption fee including the cost of desexing when he is old enough (terms and conditions apply).
Medical notes
No known pre-existing conditions.
