Overview
Ralph is a bright young boy with a curious mind, a working-dog drive, and a bit of that wild dingo charm. Being a Cattle Dog x Dingo mix, he's sharp, energetic, and always on the lookout for something interesting to do. He's still young and growing into himself, but it's clear already-he's going to need a home that can keep up with him both mentally and physically. Ralph will need someone who's experienced with working breeds, and ideally someone who understands dingo behaviour and the unique needs that come with it. He'll need very secure fencing (the more escape-proof, the better), and a home that's ready to put in the time and energy to guide him into adulthood with the right balance of structure, activity, and affection. He's shown signs of mild to moderate separation anxiety, so he's best suited to a part-time worker or someone who's home more often than not. As he matures, it'll be important to keep him busy with enrichment, training games, and plenty of physical outlets-boredom is not his friend! Ralph could live with another well-matched dog, especially one that's confident and tolerant. He'll benefit from having a steady canine role model and some company during the day. With the right support and consistency, Ralph has the potential to grow into a loyal, intelligent, and truly rewarding companion.
