Have you been looking for someone equally as strong, energetic, and smart as yourself? Mission is not your everyday dog. As an Australian Cattle Dog mix, he is an incredibly smart free spirit who will bond closely with his adopter. Australian Cattle Dogs have been called “the rugby players of the dog world.”
“Palmetto Animal League pulled Mission from another shelter because we saw an opportunity to help this highly intelligent, energetic dog find a home that understood his needs before he started to deteriorate,” explains PAL President Amy Campanini.
Mission is a remarkably devoted dog with a great sense of humor and, as you can see, he’s pretty easy on the eyes! Dogs like Mission need exercise for the brain as well as the body. Did we mention how athletic he is?
“He excels at sports,” says Campanini. “He would perform splendidly at activities such as agility, fly ball, frisbee, herding, and fetch. He would also make an excellent biking, jogging, hiking, or rollerblading buddy.”
PAL is on a mission to find Mission a home! If this happy-go-lucky guy caught your eye, come meet him at PAL’s no kill adoption center located at 56 Riverwalk Blvd. in Okatie. You’ll quickly see that he is a charismatic dog who’s always ready for the next adventure.
“He catches on to new experiences promptly, and his high intelligence makes learning new skills easy for him and fun,” says Campanini. “He is caring, loyal, and protective of those he loves.”
More than anything, Mission wants to make someone the center of his universe. He is best friend material. He’s just waiting to find his perfect person.
“Mission is very bright and affectionate,” says PAL Volunteer Pete Kiley. “He’s eager to learn and to earn your praise.”
