Australian Cattle Dog Blue Heeler Dogs Available for Adoption in Portland, Oregon

What my friends at OHS say about me:

I am part of the Diamond in the Ruff program, which you can learn more about here.
I really enjoy the company of my human friends.
I am still learning how to walk on leash, especially in new environments that can be overwhelming. I need verbal encouragement, patience and of course treats from you to help me!
I love to be around people! I'd make a great buddy for curling up on the couch to watch a movie.
I am visually impaired and will thrive with consistency and routine in my new home and day-to-day life.
I have a medical condition that requires long term management.
High Energy: I can become easily frustrated if my physical and mental exercise needs are not met. I will need positive outlets and a calm environment to help me flourish.
Shy and Nervous: I can be worried about new people, new surroundings and touch. I prefer to take things at my own pace and will need to live in a calm environment.


The type of home I'm looking for:

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.
