From the Foster Family:

Lou fit in right away and gets along great with our dogs and kids. She walks nicely on a leash without pulling and is attentive to her handler. She’s a quick learner who picks up on new commands and routines with ease, making her a joy to train. Around the house, she’s affectionate and loves to snuggle up on the couch, happily giving kisses and soaking up attention.

She has decent recall and does well when called, though like many dogs, she can’t resist the temptation to chase a squirrel if one darts by. She enjoys staying busy and especially loves chewing on a Himalayan chew to relax. Lou is crate trained and settles in comfortably, making her an easy addition to a home routine.

She has a sweet, playful personality and a great balance of energy—happy to go for walks or play, but also content to relax and be close to her people. Lou would make a wonderful companion for a family or individual looking for a loving, well-adjusted dog.

The Australian Cattle Dog, also known as the Blue Heeler, is a hardworking and intelligent breed originally developed in Australia for herding cattle. Renowned for their endurance and agility, these medium sized dogs have a striking blue or red speckled coat and alert, curious expression. With a strong herding instinct and boundless energy, they require mental stimulation and physical activity to thrive. Blue Heelers are loyal, protective, and make excellent companions for active individuals or families willing to provide the engagement and exercise they need.

The Jack Russell Terrier is a lively and intelligent small breed known for its boundless energy and strong hunting instincts. With a distinctive white coat and often sporting tan or black markings, these dogs are full of personality and require regular exercise and mental stimulation to thrive. Jack Russell Terriers are fiercely loyal and make excellent companions for active owners willing to provide the mental and physical challenges this energetic breed needs to stay happy and healthy.
