Kelly is a 5 1/2 month old , about 17 pounds, male, blue heeler/border collie mix. This little guy is so sweet, and unlike his breeds may lead you to believe, this pup is very chill... I would even call him low energy.



Kelly just came in yesterday, but is already doing well with both crate and house training. He sleeps quietly in a crate all night. He’s caught on to walking on a leash, with an occasional small hiccup.
