Looking for a four-legged friend who is silly, fun, and lighthearted? Meet Goober, a lovable goofball ready to make you laugh and melt your heart. Goober is a 10-month-old, 45lb Australian Cattle Dog mix who gets along great with other dogs, adores humans, and is good with confident, dog-savvy cats. Goober loves to wrestle his stuffed toys, or play tug-of-war with his doggy pals. He loves to chase or be chased...doesn't matter which, as long as he's having fun and burning off his "Zoomies." If needed, he'll even dangle a toy or stick in front of his buddies to get a game of chase or tug-of-war going. When tuckered out from playing, Goober can often be found snoozing in his kennel, on his back with legs splayed in the air, snoring. Goober walks well on leash and enjoys going for car rides. He is well-mannered in public, often lying down to wait patiently while his foster mom chats with friends. He loves to cuddle on the sofa, or will roll over at your feet and let you rub his belly with your toes! He knows basic commands like "sit," "down" and "kennel." He is crate-trained and house-broken. And his groomer gives him high marks for baths and nail trims. The ideal home for Goober will have a fenced yard with enough space for him to run and play. He would also love an active family who enjoys walks and outdoor activities. If you're looking for a goofy and affectionate buddy who will make you smile and laugh all day, EVERY day, look no further than Goober. Apply to adopt today!
