About Dobby

Pal's Place rescue would love to introduce you to seven of our newest rescues, an adorable group of Cattledog/Collie (?) mix pups! These roly-poly pups are about three months old (9/15) and weigh between 13 and 18 pounds. Pal's Place rescued the little family from an open-intake shelter in Kentucky after flooding ravaged the area. An overcrowded, chaotic, stressful pound is no place for pups. We heard their story and brought these sweethearts up to a wonderful foster home in Chicago to await meeting their forever families. While we cannot say for sure what their exact breed mix is, they appear to have a lot of Cattledog in them, possibly with other herding breeds such as Collie, Border Collie, or Aussie in their family tree as well. There are four females in the litter, Daisy, Dot, Daphne, and Dora, and three males, Dingo, Dobby, and Dash. They can be a little timid when first meeting new people, but they warm up quickly. True to their herding breed heritage, these guys are mouthy, extremely active, and intelligent puppies! Please do your research on Cattledogs and herding breeds in general before applying. They are wonderful dogs but not for everyone. They will not be happy cooped up in a kennel or alone for hours at a time, so homes, where someone is home more often than not, will be the best fit for one of these pups. We are also looking for homes experienced with herding breeds and homes that can provide these puppies with a healthy outlet for their instincts, intelligence, and boundless energy. They will be phenomenal companions for very active homes! They get along well with other dogs and are working on their crate training and housebreaking in their foster home. Remember that puppies this age and size need potty breaks every 2-3 hours, along with lots and lots of playtime throughout the day. Please consider if you truly have time for a puppy before applying. This crew is spayed/neutered, up-to-date with age-appropriate vaccines, microchipped, and started on flea and heartworm prevention. They are ready and anxious to meet their new families! Their adoption fee to the rescue is $475, and they can be seen by appointment after an adoption application has been submitted and approved by the rescue. �'ۢ Dobby's adoption fee to the rescue is $475. He is neutered, microchipped, up-to-date with age-appropriate vaccines, and started on flea and heartworm prevention. Dobby and his siblings can be visited by appointment once an adoption application is submitted and approved by the rescue.
