Oberon's Story

Looking for a smart, loyal, and active pup to be part of your family? Meet Oberon, a bright and affectionate 10-month-old Australian Cattle Dog who’s ready to steal your heart and join your adventures! Oberon is the perfect blend of playful puppy energy and gentle sweetness. He loves kids, has lived with cats, and was fostered on a farm when he was younger! Whether you're on a ranch, in the suburbs, or planning road trips, he's your ideal copilot. Oberon is already obsessed with car rides and will hop in happily, ready for whatever journey lies ahead. What makes Oberon special: - Friendly and social! - Loves car rides – just say the word and he’s in! - Super smart and eager to learn – ready for training and fun - Comfortable around livestock – perfect for farm or rural life - Affectionate and loyal – loves being part of the family Since Oberon is still a pup, he’ll need continued training, exercise, and lots of love to help him grow into the amazing adult dog he’s meant to be. His ideal home is one with space to play, and people to cuddle. If you are interested in adopting this dog, please apply online, at https://bigfluffydogs.com/dog-adoption/ then email sarah.romeyn@bigfluffydogs.com. Our main website, www.bigfluffydogs.com has more information about us and the rescue process. NOTE TO EMAILERS FROM PETFINDER: WE DO NOT RESPOND TO EMAIL INQUIRIES WITHOUT AN APPLICATION. WE REGRET WE CANNOT RESPOND TO EVERY EMAIL, BUT UNLESS YOU FILL OUT AN APPLICATION, WE DO NOT KNOW YOU EXIST. All known information about an individual dog is provided in its listing. We do our best to provide accurate information, but adopters should understand that each home is different and the dog may behave differently in a new home. Dogs are creatures of their environment and you help make the dog what it will be. Homes considering adopting a puppy must be prepared for 1.) Flexible schedules for potty training. Puppies can only hold it for one hour per month of age (i.e. a 4-month-old puppy can only go 4 hours without a potty break). 2.) Crate training until the puppy is at least one year old to prevent chewing on inappropriate things when you can't supervise. 3.) Socialization. The more positive and varying experiences as a puppy the better, both in and out of your home. 4.) Puppy behavior and life stages are equivalent to a human toddler. It takes at least a full year to have a calmer, well-adjusted dog. Patience is required and when your dog's behavior is a positive experience for you and those around you, your patience will be rewarded ten-fold, for years to come. Please do not consider adopting a puppy if you have not thoroughly thought through the pros and cons of having one. So many people end up returning them after 3-5 months because they didn't realize the amount of work involved in raising a puppy. Patience, appropriate toys, socialization, and obedience training are all musts. All are time-consuming and can be expensive. All dogs require supervision with children and obedience training. Adopters that want to have good dogs must be prepared to put the time and effort into training a dog. Any dog requires work and effort, but a well trained, well-socialized dog is more than worth the effort to get them there.
