John Wayne's Story

If interested, please contact the foster home. Petfinder Profiles doesn’t always work.<br/><br/>John Wayne<br/>Berryville, VA<br/>🤠 Meet John Wayne, a big boy with an opinion or two) 🤠<br/>If you’re looking for a dog who’s less chaos and more quiet loyalty, John Wayne might just be your guy. Somewhere between 3–5 years old and about 50 lbs, this Australian Cattle Dog is the definition of steady and stoic. <br/><br/>He’s not the life of the party… in fact, he’d much rather skip the nonsense and stick close to his person.<br/>And when we say close… we mean glued to you at all times... with one strong exception... he does LOVE to chase squirrels. If you never want another squirrel in your yard, he would love to get that accomplished for you.<br/>He’s currently living with 4 other dogs and 2 cats in his foster home and does just fine with them — he simply prefers human company over joining in the group shenanigans.<br/><br/>He’s not big on playing with the pack, but give him a ball (or better yet, a herding ball), and you’ll see his playful side come to life.<br/><br/>At night, when the house is settling down? He’s a world-class snuggler and fully believes your spot on the couch is actually his spot. If you decide to get up and get some popcorn during the commercial break... he has no qualms keeping your seat warm and ready for you.<br/><br/>Now, while he may be stoic, he’s not exactly silent — John Wayne will absolutely let you know when he wants your attention. Consider it his way of making sure you don’t forget he’s there (not that you could). <br/><br/>Sometimes when first starting out on a leash walk he does take it one step further with "love nibbles" on your thigh, which is not always appreciated. As a result of these occasional times, foster mom says no kids under 10, as they may not understand that he just loves them THAT much.<br/><br/>John Wayne would thrive with someone who appreciates a calmer, deeply devoted companion — the kind of dog who doesn’t need constant excitement, just his person.<br/><br/>If you’re looking for a loyal sidekick who will stick by you through it all (and maybe gently nudge you off your own couch), John Wayne is ready to ride. 🐾<br/>📩 Interested?
