SWITZER Catahoula Leopard Dog & Whippet Mix Lincoln, NE

Meet Switzer who hails from Oklahoma and is named after the famous Sooners coach! Switzer is full of life, he would make a good running buddy. He loves to go for walks and smell all the smells. He is also content curling up on the couch right next to you. Switzer knows “stranger danger” so he would need proper introductions to warm up to new people. However, once he knows you’re a safe person he will want to be your best friend! He is good while riding in the car, either looking out the window or taking a nap. Switzer did not know what a toy was before he was rescued, after a couple of months, he loves to play tug and his version of fetch! He is very smart and learns things very quickly (he has already caught on to sit and down). He is currently taking classes with a trainer and is doing very well, he masters his homework usually in the first sitting. Adopters will be asked to finish his classes with the trainer. He is kennel trained and sleeps through the night.
Switzer would love a fenced yard to run around & play freely in. He would do best in a home with no children, no future children, or small dogs. Switzer does enjoy playing with his foster sister, an Australian Shepard. He can be a little excited at times, but he does listen to her cues. Switzer's foster parents did take the time to introduce them slowly and properly. He still can be startled by sudden noise, movements, but now looks to his foster parents for reassurance. At this time we also recommend no cats. Switzer is potty trained. If you are looking for a playful, loving, smart, companion Switzer is the boy for you!

He is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, given flea/tick preventative, dewormed, tested negative for heartworm disease & given a Proheart injection for 6 months old heartworm prevention.
