This guy is 22lbs of playfulness! He is an Australian Cattle Dog mix that will steal your heart. Nitro is only 5 years old and has mastered walking on a leash. Of course, with a temperament like his, he’d be a great addition to a family with other pups.

Unfortunately, he is heart worm positive but worry not, he is a part of the Greater Birmingham Humane Society’s Foster-to-Adopt program. This means he will be treated at no charge to his adoptive parents!
