Australian Cattle Dog Blue Heeler Dogs Available for Adoption in Ottawa Hills, Ohio

Meet Ruby!! Your future fetch champion & cuddle bug! Ruby is full of energy, super smart, and always ready to play. She’s athletic, agile, and would thrive in an active home. Knowledge of herding breeds is suggested. Our best guess is she is a heeler/border collie mix.

Once she’s had her fun, Ruby is all about the snuggles. She’s great with kids, dogs, and cats, but can be a little bossy with other dogs. She listens well and responds to guidance. Like all dogs Ruby would likely benefit from training, agility or something to keep her mind working!

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.
