Sydney - Australian Cattle Dog Blue Heeler and Australian Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Inglewood, California

Meet Sydney! This handsome 9 month old Australian Cattle Dog and Australian Shepherd Mix is ready to trade his days of wondering for a lifetime of love and adventure. Sydney was found by a Good Samaritan in an industrial area and spent over two weeks on stray hold, but no one came forward to claim this sweet boy.

Sydney is the perfect mix of playful puppy energy and good manners. He loves making new dog friends, enjoys romping around with his furry pals, and has plenty of fun puppy enthusiasm to share. When it's time to slow down, Sydney shows off his polite side by walking beautifully on a leash and soaking up attention from his favorite people.

Whether he's chasing after his favorite toys, going for a walk, or making new friends, Sydney is happiest when he's included. This lovable pup is looking for a family who will keep his tail wagging and give him the happy ending he deserves.

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

With proper training, socialization, and exercise, these dogs make excellent companions for active families and individuals seeking a devoted and playful four legged friend.
