Mossy

Mossy's mantra is Let's Do This! He is a highly intelligent, fun, 5 year old, 48 lb cattle dog/boxer/pit mix. Mossy loves people and seeks their attention for a good snuggle or back scratch. He enjoys fetching a ball or stick, over and over, and has amazing eye-mouth coordination, always catching the ball on the first bounce! He really loves playing in water, even in cold weather, and rolling in the snow. He gets along with the two resident dogs in his foster home and has been with many other dogs with proper introductions. A chill, well-balanced dog that likes to play would be the best match for him. Mossy is a wonderful, incredibly loyal dog who will do anything to make his people happy! He is housebroken, crate trained and does well walking on a leash. Mossy knows Sit, Down, Wait, In Your Crate, Up and Come (he comes running very fast!). He is too interested in cats, so he is not recommended for a house with cats unless someone wants to put a lot of work into desensitizing him. Mossy will require a large yard in his forever home to get the exercise typically needed by cattle dogs and to keep his brain engaged. He would love to go on hikes, maybe do some agility and he rides perfectly in the car. Mossy is a great dog who also does well with older children or very dog-savvy younger ones. Mossy is neutered and up-to-date on vaccines. The adoption fee for this dog is $425 which includes routine vetting and spay/neuter.
