Nelson - Australian Cattle Dog Blue Heeler Dog for Adoption in Glendale, Arizona

Nelson Australian Cattle Dog 11 months male (46lbs)

Please welcome our super sweet puppy, Nelson! This boy was seen wandering around a neighborhood for a few weeks. He was so friendly that everyone assumed he belonged to someone on the block. They finally realized he was homeless and Animal Control was called. When the county truck got there, Nelson happily greeted the officer and hopped in! We saw his happy face waiting at that county shelter and snatched him up. Now he's spreading his exuberant energy at our shelter and we love him for it.

Nelson is so much fun! He loves to splash around in the baby pool and play with a ball. He loves people of all ages and always greets you with a smile. Nelson is still very much a puppy and has plenty of puppy energy. He needs exercise and training, but hes smart and wants to please so we believe he'll learn quickly. His leash manners are still a work in progress. Nelson is good with other dogs and would love a canine-buddy in his new home. This adorable boy is looking for a fun, active family to love and care for him for the rest of his life. Complete our application today if you think you might be the person for Nelson!

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.
