Leda - Australian Cattle Dog Blue Heeler and German Shepherd Dog Dog for Adoption in Cross Roads, Texas

Meet Leda
Quiet observer - Treat enthusiast - Loyal heart in progress

Leda is a gorgeous, thoughtful girl who's still learning that the world can be a safe and happy place. She doesn't give her trust easily. Instead, she prefers to watch, listen, and make sure everything feels right before she joins in. But once she decides you're part of her circle, you'll see the sweetest, silliest sides of her come shining through.

She loves to play and would thrive in a home with another confident dog who can show her that new adventures are worth the leap. Hot dogs are her favorite treat (and the fastest way to her heart), and she's happiest when kindness and patience guide her world.

It may take time for Leda to feel secure, but the reward is pure gold. You'll get a loyal friend who will make you laugh, keep you company, and maybe even curl up beside you for a nap.

If you believe trust is something worth earning, Leda will show you just how beautiful it can be once it's given. Give this girl her forever, and she'll give you her whole heart.


ADOPTION APPLICATION: https://iamdogrescue.org/adoption-application/


***IMPORTANT- PLEASE READ***

Our adoption fee is $175.

We require an application to be completed prior to setting up a meet-and-greet. We do not offer "on-the-spot" adoptions. We do not adopt on a first-come, first-served basis. We do our best to match dogs with families that will be a good fit to help ensure a successful adoption. We reserve the right to decline any application for any reason.

Due to the nature of our adoption process, our fosters are usually only able to consider forever families within a reasonable driving distance of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. A vet reference is required, and a trial period will be completed before finalizing the adoption. Thank you for your understanding.

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.

Blue Heelers are loyal, protective, and make excellent companions for active individuals or families willing to provide the engagement and exercise they need.
