Australian Cattle Dog Blue Heeler Dogs Available for Adoption

Marlee is new to our program so we are still learning about her, but this is what we can tell you. Marlee was dumped at a rural shelter in a box with 11 puppies last year. She has had to spend her puppy days growing up in a crowded shelter. This is Marlee’s first experience with life outside of those shelter walls at a year old. Despite that she is a sweet girl that will take some time to be comfortable in any family. We are giving her time to adjust to the outside world and will update as we learn more about this sweet girl!

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.
