Angus

Foster to adopt

Angus is an adorable cuddle monster who acts more like a 4-year-old dog than a 14yo!

He loves his walks and will happily greet you with a jump and a lick/kiss when he sees you. He thinks he is a lap dog and will enthusiastically jump into your lap for a cuddle if he thinks he can get away with it.

Angus is looking for a home experienced with the Cattle Dog breed, as he is a clever boy who still needs plenty of attention and stimulation even as a senior pup. Like his mate Turbo, Angus came to us from a breeding establishment and is still adjusting to his new routines. It may take him a little while to settle into a home environment, so he is looking for a patient home that will help him integrate at his own pace.

Angus has shown that he is interested in socialising with some dogs but tends to be more avoidant. He wouldn’t enjoy going to the dog park or to off leash areas as boisterous and playful dogs are too stressful for him, and he prefers to avoid them. He would much rather spend his time with humans rather than other dogs!

He could potentially live with another older, calm and placid dog who gave him plenty of space, or ideally be the only dog so that he could soak up all the love and attention he can get!

Angus will be foster to adopt while we ensure he receives all the medical and vet care he needs including a dental procedure which he will need to come back to our vet clinic to have completed. He has a minor injury to his eye and is currently on antibiotics but is already feeling much better after lots of TLC at the shelter!

Angus is looking for a home with respectful and dog-savvy kids over the age of 12, or in an adult only home.
