My Story

Meet Oberon! Oberon is a 3 month old Australian Cattle Dog mix puppy who came to rescue alongside his 5 siblings. What are they mixed with- who knows! They’re fun-loving, active, and covered in spots. What more could you ask for? At this age, they are a mix of snuggly sweet angels and zooming agents of chaos. In all seriousness, they love to play with toys, wrestle with their siblings, and then crash in a puppy nap pile. Oberon loves people, other dogs and cats - anyone who will give him attention! Cattle dogs require training, socialization and structure in order to become the very best behaved adults they can be! Ideal homes are active, any kids are 6+, and everyone on board is dedicated to puppyhood and all that comes with it. Located currently in Nashville, TN and can travel wherever we go! If you are interested in adopting this dog, please apply online, at https://bigfluffydogs.com/adopt/adoption-application/ and email [email protected] Our main website, www.bigfluffydogs.com has more information about us and the rescue process. NOTE TO EMAILERS FROM PETFINDER: WE DO NOT RESPOND TO EMAIL INQUIRIES WITHOUT AN APPLICATION. WE REGRET WE CANNOT RESPOND TO EVERY EMAIL, BUT UNLESS YOU FILL OUT AN APPLICATION, WE DO NOT KNOW YOU EXIST. All known information about an individual dog is provided in its listing. We do our best to provide accurate information, but adopters should understand that each home is different and the dog may behave differently in a new home. Dogs are creatures of their environment and you help make the dog what it will be. Homes considering adopting a puppy must be prepared for 1.) Flexible schedules for potty training. Puppies can only hold it for one hour per month of age (i.e. a 4-month-old puppy can only go 4 hours without a potty break). 2.) Crate training until the puppy is at least one year old to prevent chewing on inappropriate things when you can't supervise. 3.) Socialization. The more positive and varying experiences as a puppy the better, both in and out of your home. 4.) Puppy behavior and life stages are equivalent to a human toddler. It takes at least a full year to have a calmer, well-adjusted dog. Patience is required and when your dog's behavior is a positive experience for you and those around you, your patience will be rewarded ten-fold, for years to come. Please do not consider adopting a puppy if you have not thoroughly thought through the pros and cons of having one. So many people end up returning them after 3-5 months because they didn't realize the amount of work involved in raising a puppy. Patience, appropriate toys, socialization, and obedience training are all musts. All are time-consuming and can be expensive. All dogs require supervision with children and obedience training. Adopters that want to have good dogs must be prepared to put the time and effort into training a dog. Any dog requires work and effort, but a well trained, well-socialized dog is more than worth the effort to get them there.
