Pit Bull Terrier / Australian Shepherd / Mixed (short coat) · Baby (5 months 22 days) · Male · Large · Estherville, IA
Notes from Emmet County Animal Shelter
*The first step in the adoption process is to complete the adoption application on our website at www.emmetcountyanimalshelter.org
This pup is rip roaring ready to go on adventures! Malcolm is confident, even tempered and affectionate. He is going to be a big boy so continued work on obedience so he can grow up well behaved will be important. Malcolm would thrive in a household that wants to do stuff! He gets along fine with other dogs and cats that can stand their own would likely be fine as well. He was part of a litter of pups we had but they and his mom have all moved on. We hope that his black fur is not the thing holding up interest in him because he is very sweet and human oriented boy who wants to give kisses. His high energy will be perfect for someone that wants to go on a run, swim in the lake or play ball in the back yard. Malcolm was born 5/5/26 his adoption fee is $350.00. He is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, de-worming and are microchipped.
