Weight: 22 lbs

I am your typical energetic puppy, so be prepared for lots of playtime and puppy mischief! I'd love a family who will take me on lots of fun adventures so I can run, explore and sniff to my hearts content!

My shelter family says I'll likely do well in a home with other doggies, kitties, and kiddos, too, as im just a pup and should be able to adjust pretty easily.

Being I'm just a youngster, I'll need to be taught all the things that puppies need to learn in order to be one of the best adult doggies around! Lucky for you, I am a smart little fella, and I am so eager to learn and please my people! Right now, I am learning how to do this thing they call potty training! My new family will need to provide me with some guidance to help keep me on track so I don't have any accidents, but I'm sure I'll be a pro in no time!

If you're looking for a cute pup to grow with your family, submit an app 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.
