Meet Mike

Location: Bridgewater, CT. **Meet Big Mike, Your Future Cuddle Companion!** **Breed:** Cattle Dog Mix  **Weight:** 10 lbs (and Growing!)   **Personality:** Sweet, Energetic, and Ready for Adventures Think of the cuddliest, fluffiest teddy bear you can – and you've got Big Mike! This cutie pie, with his cattle dog mix and maybe a dash of a larger breed (those big paws and extra dew claw are a giveaway!), is on his way to being a big, lovable companion. Get ready for a heart-melting, huggable buddy! Mike is all about the love – he's a snuggle-bug, through and through. If cuddles were a sport, he'd be a champion! His sweet, sensitive soul just makes you want to scoop him up for a love fest. Our boy Mike is also a smarty-paws! He's doing awesome with his house-training, learning new things every day. He's just waiting for a patient and loving guide to show him the ropes of being the best boy. In his current foster home, he's living it up with his sister and a couple of other doggo pals. He's the life of the party, playing and romping around with all of them. Mike's the perfect mix of friendly and fun, and he's just itching to join a pack of his own. Mike's dream? To find a forever home where his playful antics and huge heart are celebrated every day. And yep, he wants to meet his new family first to make sure it's love at first sniff! On the practical side, Mike is microchipped, up to date on vaccines, but will need continued medical care (like those future vaccines and a neuter) as he grows. Ready for a lifetime of tail wags and doggy kisses? Big Mike can't wait to meet you!  If you think you could give Mike all the love he’s looking for, or have any other questions about him, please reach out to [email protected].
