Oakley - Australian Cattle Dog Blue Heeler and Cattle Dog Dog for Adoption in Boerne, Texas

Meet Oakley! At 8 weeks old and 10 pounds, this American Heeler/Cattle Dog boy is a little bundle of puppy magic-with tiny teeth and absolutely no respect for your shoelaces!

Oakley was born to a stray mama in the dirt, but his story took a wonderful turn when he, his mom, and his siblings entered foster care at just 10 days old. He's been growing up surrounded by love ever since! His mama weighs about 40 pounds, but Dad remains a mystery, so his grown-up size is still a guessing game.

Cattle Dogs are known for being smart, loyal, and busy, and Oakley will need plenty of playtime, gentle training, and activities that keep his little brain working. A bored puppy can become a very creative interior decorator!

He's still learning everything-potty training, leash walking, and which things are toys versus your personal belongings. His future family should be ready with patience, positive reinforcement, socialization, and a consistent routine.

Oakley is ready to work his magic on your heart!
