He is
a dear darling dog but deserves more time and attention than we can give
him. My husband wants to keep him but I think he really deserves
more. He is perfectly safe here, gets food, water and medicine when
needed, BUT he does not get lots of attention and does not have much
interaction with other dogs or people. Name-
Putt-Putt Breed-
Australian Cattle Dog Gender-
Male Age-
about 1 and a half Location-
just outside Pensacola, FL. Bio- We are Putts fourth home. The first home
didn’t look after him as a small puppy. He went to a friend of
ours who lost her job and home. Then he went to some people who turned
out not to be able to afford vet care for him. Their son left a bucket
of floor cleaning out and Putt drank the water. He became extremely ill
and because of our friend, we picked up the vet bill for him. He then
came to stay with us. At the time we had 13 other rescues in our
home. We are getting older (in our 70s now) with some health problems
and cannot give Putt the time and attention he deserves. He is just as
sweet as can be, but we have no experience training deaf dogs. He is
well crate trained and goes readily into his crate at night and can stay up
to 10 hours with no problem. He likes to play with our younger Lab when
we put her in his yard. Because of his deafness he have
him separated from our others where he cannot get hidden or hurt. He
will NOT use a dog house during the day when it rains even though he has 2 to
choose from. At night his crate is in my husband’s art studio.
He is a little OCD about light and will chase shadows. He does pretty
well with a leash which is how I move him from the yard to the studio.
He will bark at new people but is friendly once they are in his yard.
He has had his vaccinations and is heart worm negative, on preventive.
He is not yet neutered. He is all blue/black, NO BROWN |
