You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi! I’m Chimkin...yes, like chicken

5 months old | 20 lbs | Heeler mix
Projected size? Around 55 lbs

I’m a goofy, confident, & super smart pup who’s equal parts playtime
chaos & cuddle bug. I love people (big & tiny!), enjoy hanging with my
dog friends, & take on the world with zero hesitation—I’m not really
scared of anything, just ready to explore.

Here’s what makes me a pretty egg-cellent companion:
Smart cookie—I already know sit, down, & touch!
Friendly with everyone I meet—humans & dogs are my favorite flock
Playful & full of personality (toys = instant zoomies)
Confident & brave—I take new things in stride
Very food motivated... I will absolutely work for treats

I’ve been working hard on my manners & I’m doing awesome:
Crate trained—I sleep all night & take multiple daytime naps in my
crate without a peep
Learning potty training with consistent outings
Practicing polite behavior—I don’t jump much, I sit and wait
patiently at doors, & I’m very gentle for a puppy (minimal nibbling!)
Walking fairly nicely on leash & improving every day

A few of my favorite things:
Admiring myself in window reflections (gotta check on this handsome face)
Sprinting around & wrestling with toys like it’s my full-time job
I love car rides
Snuggling up once I’ve burned off my puppy energy

I’m the perfect mix of playful, confident, & cuddly. I’d love a home
that keeps me active, keeps my smart brain engaged, continues my
training, & lets me be part of the family (or should I say... the flock
).

Apply to meet me, and I promise a lifetime of love, laughs, and loyal
companionship: https://bit.ly/RRAdoptionApplication

Chimkin is ready to find his forever home.

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.
