Patches is a 16 month old male English Setter/ Australian Cattle dog mix. He is house trained, current on his shots and will sit on command. He is neutered.
Patches is a beautiful dog that everyone instantly falls in love with. He currently lives with two other dogs and loves to play with them in a large yard. He has lots of energy and is very mild tempered. He is good around children, and tends to like women better than men. He can be very timid especially around new people but follows me through the house from room to room very curious about everything, but tends to be scared of loud noises like the vacuum. He loved the dogs he lived with and a lot of the time was more interested in playing with them rather than seeking attention from humans. He takes more towards females than males. He loves to have plenty of room to play and run.
He walks on a leash but does pull, since he is so used to being free to run where he wants. He will sit and he will come when he is called if he wants to, he can be stubborn. He likes attention but when he is finished with the attention he wants he likes to do his own thing and is not high maintenance. He loves to be spoiled and likes to sleep on the couch next to you.
He has been around a cat in an outdoor setting, he is curious but after being scratched, he stayed away. He does not need a fence if there is lots of land, but does in a smaller area.
Patches is currently living in the Columbia, SC area.
