Not Apartment Appropriate! Rascal is a busy Herding breed

PRECIOUS!  Rascal has stolen the hearts of everyone he has met.    Some horrible person dumped him on the streets of Houston to fend for himself.  Thankfully, Rascal found some good samaritans who made sure he had food and water until he could be caught. 

Initially, he is cautious. But 5 seconds later, he is a cuddle bug.   He loves toys.   Bouncing around with his favorite ball, or rope toy, he is a happy boy even though people have let him down.   He finds his own happiness.

Rascal is a cattle dog and is a bit mouthy.   He knows it is a no no, but can't help himself if he gets excited. 

His perfect family will be an active family as this breed are working dogs.   They need to be challenged.  Older children will be perfect for him. 

Wouldn't you love to add a perfect dog to your family!  You can't find a better match.
