Finn - Australian Cattle Dog Blue Heeler and Mixed Breed Dog Available for Adoption in Cheyenne, Wyoming

*** AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION, FOSTER, or FOSTER TO ADOPT ***

Meet Finn! He is currently enrolled in our P.A.C.K. Program, a 9-week intensive program for routine obedience, agility, and handling training with a prison inmate trainer and he is just about ready to show off his new skills! His new abilities include 'sit', 'wave', 'pray' and more! New adopters should realize that PACK Program graduates will require regular, ongoing reinforcement of learned behaviors in order for them to become permanent.

Finn has spent much of his young life in shelters, but he's finally starting to discover how fun the world can be. He may be a little shy when facing new things, but give him a little time, a few tasty treats, and some gentle encouragement, and you'll see his confidence grow every single day. He tends to be the most scared of car rides and walking through doorways.

He gets along well other dogs but does better with females. He has learned that running, playing, and just being a carefree pup is pretty great!

Finn doesn't seem too phased by cats but may choose to play rough with them when unsupervised.

He's especially motivated by snacks (who isn't?), which makes teaching him new tricks and polishing his manners a breeze.

Finn is almost ready for someone to see the amazing dog he's becoming and give him the chance to truly blossom. Could that be you?

Apply to meet him today - he can't wait to wiggle his way into your heart!

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.
