Australian Cattle Dog Blue Heeler Dogs Available for Adoption in Cornwall, Connecticut

Reina is one of our three musketeers with her two brothers Chuck and Richard. She might be the smallest of the group but she has really learned to hold her own and can take on both her brothers at the same time! She was a little more reserved like Chuck was when they arrived but she might be the bravest out of all of them now! She is super sweet and always looking for something to play with. She is only a few months old so if you’ve been feeling a puppy itch this spring Reina would be happy to scratch it for you! She has a lot to learn and a ton of exploring to do so be ready for lots of puppy adventures. She won’t last very long here before getting snagged up so act fast!

​Please note that we are often asked if dogs are "house trained". The dogs are in fact living in a kennel environment during their time with us. Even if they have previously lived in a home and been trained - the stress of the change and the new home can sometimes cause regression and require some additional training. We feel that it's best for all adopters to be prepared for this possibility.
Visit our adoption page for details about our process, and to fill out an adoption application. All animals come spayed/neutered, UTD on vaccines, and microchipped. If the animals age or health prevents any of these from being completed prior to adoption a voucher is issued for the services to be performed. If you have any questions about the animal, or our adoption process, please email adopt@littleguild.org. The Little Guild is a 501c(3) federally recognized non-profit organization devoted to saving the lives of homeless pets.
