Australian Cattle Dog Blue Heeler and Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption in Minnetonka, Minnesota

Hi! My name is Havana and I'm from Arkansas!

Hi! I am Havana... but my foster mom calls me Havi (Ha- vee). I came from far away a few weeks ago and have fit right in with my three foster sisters!

I know lots of dog skills and I am good at going outside to go potty, walking on a leash and playing with other dogs. I am also very fun and curious and smart. I learned how to use the doggie door in just a couple of days and love to go keep an eye on the squirrels, bunnies and other creatures outside.

I also love to go on walks. But after a good walk I am all set for snuggles and a long nap on the couch. The ottoman is my favorite spot to sleep. I love to give hugs too!! And if you hug me back my tail goes wild!! I am the sweetest girl!

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 mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
