Taz - Australian Cattle Dog Blue Heeler and Labrador Retriever Dog for Adoption in Fairfield, Connecticut

Howdy from Texas! I’m Taz. A very friendly Red Heeler mix with a heart of gold. I am about 2 years old, weigh 56 lbs, and have a gorgeous red coat with a “dingo” look and a “labrador” personality! I was a stray dog, rescued by a good Samaritan who had way too many rescue dogs, but no funds to care for us. That's when I was surrendered to another rescue, and now 4 Little Paws is lending a hand to find me a wonderful forever home! I am neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, happy, healthy, and ready to get the heck out of Texas!

First and foremost, I am a really nice dog with an exceptional personality- calm, easygoing, social, and friendly with everyone, including strangers, kids, dogs, and kitty cats. I have a medium energy level, and I adore playing with my people and other dogs more than anything. I’m sweet and love getting attention, and although I am not overly affectionate, I will still share a kiss, but only if you ask for one. I’m very well-behaved, rarely bark, don't chew, dig, or jump the fence, and I don't guard my food or toys. I have no separation anxiety, am not scared of loud noises, and I am housebroken. I love going for walks, don't mind a car ride, enjoy social gatherings, don't mind being dressed up like a lion, LOL, and do well in a crate even though I don't need one. I’m simply an easy dog to love and care for and an amazing companion dog! Inquire about me today.

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 Labrador Retriever is a popular and versatile dog breed known for its friendly demeanor and high intelligence. These dogs are often used as guide dogs for the visually impaired, search and rescue dogs, and excellent family pets.

With their loyal and loving nature, Labradors have rightfully earned their reputation as one of the most beloved dog breeds in the world.
