Hi! I’m Adelaide, a 40 pound, 5 year old cattle dog. My friends call me Addy. My breed comes from Australia but the police found me wandering in Kent. Can you imagine someone dumping a beautiful girl like me? I was scared and lonely. Happier now at my foster home which has dogs and a big yard in which we can all adventure. However, I really want my own person again. I promise to love you with all my heart. I need a strong leader to be my boss. I had to learn hard knocks on the streets. I need to not be in charge anymore. 

My foster mom always tells me how loveable I am. I’m house trained, not food or toy aggressive, and love car rides. It was hard to know who to trust when I was alone, so I am timid at first. My other issue is reacting to other dogs until I know ok. Because of my timidity and reactiveness, I don’t give a good first impression but if you give me a chance, I’ll make a very loyal and loving companion.

Foster mom Donna here. Addy is a special girl who needs a special owner to bring out her best. Someone who can assure her when fearful. She has high energy outside but calm inside. She can be independent but also affectionate. She likes everyone including dogs BUT not instantly. Takes a few minutes for her to calm and be playful. I leave her alone in the house with no crate and she’s been good. Her ideal owner will love the outdoors and have a yard where she can run free and explore. We leave her off leash and she’s been good at recall but a fence would be ideal.
