Bingo - Australian Cattle Dog Blue Heeler Dog for Adoption in Cincinnati, Ohio

Meet Bingo!

Bingo is a 4 month-old puppy with a whole lot of personality packed into one adorable package. We were told he’s a Blue Heeler/Cattle Dog mix, but all of the puppies are tall and lean, so we suspect there may be a few mystery breeds mixed in there, too! Whatever his mix, he’s 100% cute.

Bingo is playful, curious, and always ready for some fun, but he has a sweet, snuggly side, too. After he’s finished playing, he’s happy to curl up with his people for some cuddle time.

Bingo came to STAF with his siblings after an accidental litter. Like any puppy, he’ll need a family ready to help him learn all the basics, including house training, leash manners and general puppy skills. And if that Blue Heeler/Cattle Dog heritage is accurate, he may grow into an energetic, smart dog who will thrive in an active home that can give him plenty of exercise, enrichment, training and things to do.

He’s young, eager to learn and ready to start discovering the world with his forever family. If you’re looking for a playful pup who can keep up with your adventures but is also perfectly happy to snuggle afterward, Bingo could be your guy!

Visit STAF.org for more information on our adoption process. *** Email adoptadog@STAF.org for next steps! ***

Adoption through STAF includes full vetting of the dogs, including a spay/neuter at 6 months (female)/9month (male) maximum.

We do not do same-day adoptions. You will be asked to return for at least one follow-up visit, then take the dog home for a trial period before officially adopting.
You must be 21 years or older to adopt from STAF.
Due in part to increasing coyote activity/incidents in the area and the difficulty of predicting how a dog will respond to invisible fence training, we can not adopt to homes with invisible fences.
We do request vet and personal references.
We can facilitate adoptions within a 30-mile radius of our Cincinnati-based shelter

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.
