Hoss's Story

Meet Hoss!<br/><br/>Hoss came into our care when his guardian's lifestyle changed, and he's ready to find his next chapter, filled with activity, connection, and plenty of playtime. A true cattle dog through and through, he's sharp, energetic, and endlessly curious about the world around him. You can almost see the wheels turning behind those bright eyes. He's always ready for the next adventure, the next game, the next task that lets him show off his smarts.<br/><br/>If there's one thing you should know about Hoss, it's this: he loves to play fetch. The ball is his favorite way to bond, to show you just how fast and focused he can be! If you give him a few throws, you'll see the happy, wiggly energy that makes him so easy to love. He's also vocal and expressive, the kind of dog who doesn't hold back when he has something to share! Under all that drive and enthusiasm is a dog who's deeply social. Hoss loves being around people. He greets everyone with his tail wagging, body wiggling, eyes bright with anticipation. He's the kind of dog who wants to be part of the action, to share his joy with his humans. <br/><br/>Hoss will thrive in a home where he can stretch his legs, use his brain, and stay connected to his people. He's the perfect match for someone who appreciates a dog with spirit, spunk and intelligence. Could you have room in your home and heart for handsome Hoss?<br/><br/>Dogs: Hoss may thrive as the only dog in his home. <br/>Cats: Hoss has experience living with cats. <br/>Children: Hoss may thrive in a home with teenagers and adults. <br/><br/>Ready to adopt your new best friend?<br/>Submit an adoption application today!
