Patch ~ 6mo Cattledog x Whippet (On Trial 4/4/20)

Hi I’m Patch! I’m a 6-month-old, male cattle dog x whippet and love nothing more than following my humans everywhere they go.

I am a very affectionate boy, who loves to cuddle up on the lounge. My foster mum even says I sometimes like to think I’m a lap dog! I can be timid when meeting new people or travelling to new places, but once my humans show me every thing’s okay I am great.

I have only just learnt to walk on a lead and although my foster brothers like to pull away, I’m more than happy to walk next to my humans just to make sure they aren’t going anywhere. I am house trained and have learnt how to use the doggy door. I have also learnt to sit and shake, and I usually come when I’m called however ongoing training would be beneficial.

I currently live with a cattle x and kelpie x and enjoy chasing them around the yard when we are playing. I love hanging out with my foster brothers so would love a brother or sister at my new home that can keep me company during the day. I need to be welcomed inside when people are home but I am more than happy to sleep outside at night if that’s what you’d prefer. I definitely do love sleeping on my human's bed though when they let me!

As I’m still a puppy, I do get very excited when you come home and don’t understand my long lanky legs when I jump up, therefore I’d be better suited to a family with no small children. I haven’t been tested with cats or pocket pets.
