Fiddle (Corvallis, OR) - Australian Cattle Dog Blue Heeler and Cattle Dog Dog for Adoption in Mount Vernon, Washington

Meet Fiddle!

Fiddle is a sweet 2-year-old Heeler mix weighing 33 pounds who is ready to find her forever family. She is truly a lover, not a fighter- a gentle, affectionate girl who enjoys being with her people and has a calm, easygoing personality.
Fiddle is friendly with new people and does well with other dogs.

She enjoys spending time outdoors, whether exploring the yard, hiking with her person, or simply relaxing in the fresh air. She also loves zooming and romping with her foster home's resident dog in the backyard. She has shown some separation anxiety when left home alone, but because she has done well when left with the resident dog, it seems she'd do best in a home with another animal.

She is crate trained and may whine for a few nights while adjusting to a new home, but she settles in with patience and a consistent routine. She would do best with a family willing to continue her basic training and help build her confidence. She isn't reliable off leash yet, so a securely fenced yard or leash walks are recommended. She has stellar leash manners.

If you're looking for a kind, loyal companion with a gentle heart, Fiddle is ready to fill your home with love.

Fiddle is spayed, microchipped, and up-to-date on her core vaccines. She is being fostered in Corvallis, Oregon.
