Australian Cattle Dog Blue Heeler Dogs Available for Adoption

Meet lovely Taffy. Her foster family has completely fallen in love with this sweet girl. She is a gentle, fun loving, curious soul who was rescued from the euthanasia list in New Mexico.

She loves to play with their puppy, and she's pooped she will come sit between their legs and take a nap. She's really good on a leash and quite friendly with other dogs. She hasn't chased the squirrels, she just watches them in wonder. Perhaps she'd be good with cats?

Her ears are ridiculously cute - standing at attention all the time. She's super soft and has a beautiful speckled chest and the tips of her toes. She's on the smaller side at maybe 13 lbs right now.

Taffy would do perfect in a family of any configuration! However, given how much she likes to play, she would love a sibling or organized puppy play dates. She sleeps through the night in her crate... typically cries for a few minutes and then crashes out. She has not had any accidents in her crate. She is working hard on potty training - not there yet but close! One of the loveliest pups they have ever fostered.

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.
