Adopt Zara a White - with Tan, Yellow or Fawn Australian Cattle Dog / Catahoula

Location:

Brookeville, MD

Description:

Introducing Zara, a delightful one-year-old bundle of affection and unwavering devotion. Zara's journey began when we saved her from a high-kill shelter in Texas, narrowly escaping a grim fate. It's evident that someone may have treated her unkindly, as she initially displays timidity (cowers) around unfamiliar people, but she will also get on her back for belly rubs. With time, love, and a reassuring touch, Zara will blossom into the best version of herself. She has the prettiest coat and if you brush it the opposite way, you can see that her roots are red! In her nurturing foster home, Zara is flourishing, thanks to her work-at-home foster parents who provide ample human interaction and the attention she craves. She's a snuggling pro, always seeking reassurance and showering you with boundless love. While Zara prefers not to be confined in a kennel at any time, she is house trained and we think she will get used to a crate with some patience & positive reinforcement. She is very food motivated and eager to please. She's very well-mannered on leash and loves walks so much.. Those are her favorite! She dislikes being alone, so ideally her family will spend a lot of time at home or bring her places.Zara would thrive in a home with submissive dogs or as the only dog, and slow introductions are crucial when meeting new dogs & settling into a new environment. She is NOT good with cats or other small animals due to her high prey drive, so her future home must not have any. It's important to note that she's best suited for a home with children over the age of 10 as she doesn't always realize her size. She will playfully nibble on you when she wants someone to pet her, which is a typical cattle dog trait. Zara needs to be in an environment where those around her understand and respect her boundaries as she continues to heal and learns to trust that she'll never experience harm again. When Zara knows and trusts you, she'll eagerly leap onto you, expressing her love through her endearing, expressive eyes and a hug.Zara delights in a balanced blend of indoor and outdoor play and finds pure joy in basking in the warm sun. If you're in search of an affectionate and loyal companion perfectly suited to a work-from-home /retirement lifestyle or an active one where you’ll bring your dog with you all over, Zara is the ideal addition to your life.DISCLAIMER- Breed type is determined based on general appearance and behavioral characteristics and cannot be guaranteed unless DNA test results or AKC registration were provided at intake.***MOST OF OUR DOGS ARE FOSTERED IN TEXAS, BUT AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION AND TRANSPORT OUT OF STATE.
