female, medium, baby
DESCRIPTION
This little girl is ready to play! Tessie is a 7-month-old Heeler mix weighing 32 pounds. She recently got spayed so we haven’t been able to let her loose to run and play. That will happen very soon and she is ready!! We will start working on her leash skills as well.She is pretty petite but has the Heeler spunk. We think she is dog friendly. If you have other dogs in the home, we require a meet and greet to make sure the fit is right.We don’t know how she feels about cats at this point but will cat test her soon. We think she would love to have a home with a fenced yard so she can run and play safely.
You can meet Tessie on Saturdays from 10-2 at Dogs Forever, 809 Rockford Rd SW in Cedar Rapids. Please fill out an application using the link provided below prior to your visit so we can learn more about you and your home.

ABOUT: AUSTRALIAN CATTLE DOG BLUE HEELER DOG BREED
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.
