Sugar Cattle Dog Mix Columbia, MD

MEET SUGAR! (Descriptor: Sweet)
This active and very playful ~1yr old little girl was rescued from an underserved shelter where she was scheduled for humane euthanasia due to overcrowding and absolutely no fault of her own. This harsh reality is unbeknownst to her - she is full of life and adores people and other dogs! We believe her to be a mixed Cattle Dog, due to her appearance and behaviors. At about 40 pounds, she is a medium sized and healthy young pup.
Sugar is aptly named because her foster mom describes her as "super sweet". Her foster family has a farm and sweet Sugar has been savoring a life with her humans, other dogs and farm animals. She doesn't leave her people and is friendly to strangers. She is house broken and uses a doggie door, so is not being crated while in foster. Instead she sleeps happily on a dog bed. She has excellent recall and is horse and chicken safe. Like some of us, car rides can make her car sick so her foster family have been taking her on short trips to help build up her tolerance.
Sugar absolutely loves other dogs and plays well with both male and female dogs after proper introductions, but her favorites are the playful young dogs. Sugar would make an excellent family or farm dog for an active family; small kids would probably be fine if you understand herding breeds (may "nip" heels). Please no homes that intend to crate all day.
