Red - Australian Cattle Dog Blue Heeler Dog for Adoption in Portland, Oregon

What My friends at OHS say about me:

I may be shy at first, but once we get to know each other I will shower you with love!

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 do my best to make it super-duper hard for you to leave every cuddle session.

I can be worried and anxious in new surroundings. I may take time to adjust to a new environment.

I can be overwhelmed by overhandling, restraint or touch. I may exhibit my discomfort in a variety of ways and will need to go to a dog savvy home.

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:
I must go to a home with a fenced in yard.
I will need to meet any canine companions prior to getting adopted.

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.
