Meet Mama

Mama1.5 yearsAustralian cattle dog X45lbs full grownLeash trainedKennel trainedLOVES KIDS! Mama is shy to other animals at first and sometimes will snap at them but with slow introductions, she gets along well with others and loves to play. Mama has a high energy level because she is still young. She loves to go places, for walks, and play fetch. She alsoLoves to play in water! She does know how to calm down and rest when it is appropriate. Hi, I’m Mama! I got my name because I came from an old coyote den with my babies. We were all starving to death and missing hair. A nice lady took us in and she started referring to me as “Mama” and the name just kind of stuck. After 3 months at my foster home, my babies left to the SPCA in Kansas and I stayed here. I didn’t really mind because I kinda like this family and the fact that I’m treated like royalty. I have my own thrown. The people call it a kennel but to me, it’s a thrown with a nice fluffy dog blanket and bed. I enjoy spending time with my foster mom and foster siblings. We go for walks, rides in the car, we play fetch and they even give me treats quite often. I love to run and play. My foster mom started putting me on this rope thing called a lead because I enjoy climbing the gate and going for adventures. I do chase cars if I get the chance. I really just like to show how fast I am. I LOVE when my foster mom lets me snuggle on the couch. I know how to sit if you have a surprise for me. I walk gently on a leash. I’m a professional squirrel and bird hunter. So if I see one, just hold on to my leash firmly. I am curious about cats. I live with one and I really wanna play with him but my foster mom won’t let me. I am shy to new people and animals. I do best with slow introduction. I don’t really like when men approach me wearing hats. I feel scared and will bark. I’m still learning table manners. I love to see what’s on the counter. I’m excited to find a forever family and I sure hope they have kids for me to play with!
