Chad

FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME NEEDED<br/>Meet Chad!<br/>Chad is a 5-year-old, 50 lb Australian Cattle Dog/Aussie mix (with a little Border Collie and German Shepherd in there too!) who came to us as a stray from an overcrowded shelter. This handsome, fluffy boy is full of personality, has been a volunteer and staff favorite since being in our care, and is ready to find his perfect match!<br/><br/>Chad is sweet, loving, and an absolute character. He’s goofy, silly, and full of life ~ always ready to make you smile. He loves belly rubs, will happily flop over for attention, and is a total “leaner” who enjoys being close to his people.<br/><br/>As a working breed mix, Chad is smart, driven, and always thinking. He thrives when he has a job to do and will need a home that understands how to keep both his mind and body engaged. He loves to learn and would do great with continued training, enrichment, and an active lifestyle filled with adventures like hiking, running, and exploring.<br/><br/>Chad came from a more rural environment and would do best in a home outside of the city, where things are less overwhelming and more in line with what he’s used to. He can become overstimulated in busy environments, which can lead to some reactivity, but he has already made great progress with structure and consistency.<br/><br/>He can do well with other dogs but would likely do best with a female dog companion or as an only dog with continued socialization. Because of his energy and sensitivity to overstimulation, he is not a fit for homes with cats or young children.<br/><br/>Chad will thrive with an experienced adopter who understands working or herding breeds and is committed to providing structure, leadership, and outlets for his energy and intelligence.<br/><br/>Chad would love to find a family or person who will embrace his goofy personality, work with his brilliant mind, and give him the active, fulfilling life he craves.<br/><br/>If you’re experienced, active, and ready for a loyal, fun-loving companion, Chad might just be your guy! <br/><br/>Chad is UTD on vaccinations, microchipped, and neutered. His adoption fee is $450.
